With regard to the maritime conventions Bill and on the importance of fishing and tourism in the Howth area, does the Taoiseach share my concern about the proposal that people should pay for parking in the Howth pier area which could potentially damage the fishing and tourism industries in the area? Will he raise the issue with the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine, Deputy Simon Coveney, because it is a very serious one for the people of Howth, given the 300 jobs provided along the pier? I urge the Taoiseach to intervene in this urgent matter.
