Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Sea-Fisheries (Amendment) Bill 2017 and Fish Quotas: Discussion

4:00 pm

Mr. Francis O'Donnell:

I will reply to Deputy Pringle. At present, I believe the most important issue for the industry, and some of my colleagues agree, is maintaining access to UK waters post Brexit. In addition to that, we must examine a national strategy for when it comes to renegotiating relative stability keys. Our organisation would like to consider employing a barrister, perhaps, to examine that and to see the potential, whether there would be conflicts with existing treaties and so forth.
