Mr. Don Hoctor:

I will deal with the earlier part. The 12,000 tonnes we are talking about is mainly coming out of the increase in quota. We are not taking quota off somebody who has bought quota already.

In terms of interference, the Minister is currently deciding how to allocate that quota so he is getting involved in the market situation. We are just saying that he should consider this way of allocation as opposed to the split he is looking at between the refrigerated seawater, RSW, vessels and the polyvalent vessels.
