John Perry (Sligo-Leitrim, Fine Gael)

Question 72: To ask the Minister for Communications, Marine and Natural Resources whether, in respect of compensation for commercial netsmen, he will reconsider the valuation that has been put on the licence or improvements to the minimum payment, given that commercial quotas declined by approximately 60% in the reference period for compensation, fishermen were penalised by the area based quota system and commercial representatives suggested equal valuation of all salmon licences; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
