I thank Mr. O'Mahony. We are after having an extensive question and answer session and a number of issues were dealt with comprehensively. This is a hugely important issue for the fishing industry as we saw with the huge turnout at the protest in Dublin last week. On behalf of the committee, I thank the representatives of the SFPA for coming in again and providing clarity on issues raised by the members of the committee. Hopefully an amicable solution to this can be found and that we will not have to revisit the issue.
I propose that we suspend until 3.30 p.m., when the joint committee will meet to discuss the collection and recycling of farm plastics. Is that agreed? Agreed.
