We are saying, through amendments Nos. 130 and 131, that we believe people with the skills and abilities in question should be on the board. It is vital to have representatives from the fishing industry on the board. We are talking about independence, transparency and confidence in the board.
I am aware that the Minister of State has tabled amendment No. 129 but he could have gone further. Is it possible to include our proposals? If not, we will have to call a vote.
