Licensing and Harvesting of Seaweed in Ireland: Discussion

6:40 pm

Mr. Jean-Paul Deveau:

I do not know the specific area. The industry is unregulated at present. There was a patch of seaweed we were discussing and it had been left to sit for three years, but somebody else came in and harvested it after two years.
