Crisis in Ireland's Inshore Fishing Industry: Discussion
Michael Ring (Mayo, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source
I have listened and there are two big issues. First, there has to be some kind of a subsidy in the short term and, second, the inshore fishers have to be allowed into existing stock. That has to be done immediately as otherwise these fishermen will not be in the industry. We should put pressure on the Department in that regard when its officials appear later.
