Ms Oonagh Buckley:

What I have said is we will not walk away from inspecting this fleet. We take our obligations under the MOU extremely seriously but the level of intensity with which we have done it over the last two years is not sustainable and to continue to do so leaves other vulnerable workers who happen not to work on fishing vessels over 15 m in length at risk, and we have our obligations across all other ranges of employments. Therefore, we cannot do that.
