I would not want items such as the Corrib gas project to be included. There is minimal benefit to the community from the employment created and Dr. Connolly knows that there are enormous tax concessions for the project that enable no corporation tax to be paid for 20 to 25 years. Are there specific studies outside of Ireland's Ocean Economy of where the benefits are and the costs involved, taking into account the tax breaks given? Does it cover what is being made by supertrawlers and the problems they cause for local communities? What is Dr. Connolly's opinion on them and how does he see the problem being addressed? It is obviously one for coastal communities which are having resources being taken away.
