Ms Karin Dubsky:

It should be based on the model of coastal zone management committees abroad, in that all major stakeholders would be represented, including those that are usually least represented. For example, traditional inshore fishermen are hardly ever heard. The committee should also include environmental NGOs, local authorities and the main bodies, for example, the Sea-Fisheries Protection Authority, Inland Fisheries Ireland, IFI, the Marine Institute, etc., so that all of those with a responsibility in the zone are informed of one another.
