Public Accounts Committee
2019 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 30 - Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine
6:30 pm
Mr. Brendan Gleeson:
What we have now is a Commission decision. What will be required will be to establish an alternative to the existing control plan. The SFPA, because this is its business and because it has absolute operational independence from the Department, will have to put forward some kind of an alternative. We will have to make sure that that is as reasonable and as workable as possible for fisherman but it must also address the control issues that the Commission identified.
