Mr. Seán O'Donoghue:

I will respond to Deputy Ferris. The issue we are discussing here is between two segments. It is between 23 vessels and 27 vessels. That is forgotten here. We are not talking about the other 1,400 vessels. I can stand over all the statistics I have given the committee and they show there is no basis, other than parochial, for this review. I ask the committee to take that on board.
