I thank our guests for coming in. I have some questions concerning the previous group and planning for the future by the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine. The nature restoration law is a new law that has been proposed by Europe which has consequences for marine areas. The law has been progressing over the last year. A vote on the law will take place around the 26 or 28 February in Brussels. What forward planning has been done by the Department? What will be the consequences of that law on the marine for the Irish fishing fleet?
