Joint Oireachtas Committee on Fisheries and Maritime Affairs
Sprat Fishing: Discussion
2:00 am
Ms Carol Forrest:
I thank the Deputy for his questions. To answer his question on the timeline, once the policy directive or legal instruments required to bring this restriction into place are signed and laid before the Houses, they will then have immediate effect. That would be a very quick timeframe once the policy directive is signed.
I believe my colleague, Ms McSherry, wanted to come in.
