Dr. Susan Steele:

I thank everyone for giving us a considered reading of the matter and for their comments. The message from the SFPA is that we understand the hardships in the fishing industry. We understand the difficulties with the weather in recent months and we understand the problems in the industry. In any shared resources it is important to have fair and effective seeking of compliance. The role of the SFPA is key in this area. We will go through the questions and take them in order. I will pass to Mr. Andrew Kinneen and Mr. Micheál O'Mahony. I thank the Senator who asked how points can be assigned and yet there can be a different outcome in the courts. I will hand over to Mr. Micheál O'Mahony. The key issue is that our job as a regulator is not the writing of the SI but the enforcement of the SI.
