Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
Harnessing Ireland's Ocean Wealth: Marine Co-ordination Group
Dr. Cecil Beamish:
I am not sure what the Senator has in mind. Sometimes people are talking about freezer factories, fishing vessels that freeze product on board. There is quite a number of them in our prawn fisheries, but they are of a smaller scale and I do not think they are what the Senator has in mind. She possibly has in mind non-Irish, EU vessels.
