Mr. Robert McCabe:

Similarly to what Ms Brien said, it is all about marine spatial planning, and the need for certainty and clarity is absolute. The seafood-ORE working group would welcome anything that brought certainty and clarity to the process. The seafood industry in general, and fishermen in particular, have a background in protecting their environment and protecting their species in quota management and so forth.

They understand what is at stake. Certainly, those in the ORE sector very much understand what is at stake here. However, we would like to see clarity in order that we can understand how we all work together in that one maritime space and what the impact of this will be on the two sectors that are represented at the seafood-ORE working group. Of course, I have a selfish interest and only look at those two sectors. I am aware that there is an awful lot beyond that, but I only look at those. Clarity will always be welcome.
