It states:

Specifically focusing on non-EEA statistics, during the period 1 January 2016 to 8 September 2017, the Naval Service boarded and inspected sixty-three (63) Irish registered fishing vessels over 15 metres in length relevant to the issue we are discussing today. The number of non-EEA crew members onboard totalled one hundred and thirty four (134). Of these one hundred and thirty four (134) non EEA crew members, thirty-nine (39) had the required letter of approval and ninety-five (95) did not. In line with the MoU, details relating to these non-EEA crew members were forwarded to the SFPA for onward transmission to the WRC.

That is exactly what it states. I call Mr. Conway.
