Sea-Fisheries and Maritime Jurisdiction Bill 2005: Report Stage (Resumed) and Final Stage.
5:00 pm
Noel Dempsey (Meath, Fianna Fail)
There was talk of me changing my position. The original Fine Gael position on this Bill was that it would repeal the Bill in its entirety. As matters progressed and became a little hotter, Fine Gael suddenly found itself in a position where it seemed the only thing it ever sought at any stage was administrative penalties for minor technical offences. We now see a great change from where Deputy Perry and Fine Gael were at the outset.
