Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Weighing of Fisheries Products: Discussion

Mr. Miche?l O'Mahony:

Since the coming into effect of the control plan in 2012, we have had several cases of the opposite, with operators landing at a port in Ireland, including Dunmore East and Killybegs, and they were going to a Northern Ireland processing facility. They were not minded to be weighing in Ireland but we made it very clear they need to weigh in Ireland. We enforced weighing in Ireland on those landings for the same reason, which is that there was no common control programme in place. It is a reciprocal answer to the Deputy's question.
