If the Minister will excuse a poor pun, there seems to be something a little bit fishy here. Nine WRC inspectors have received training, but the following are facts. One organiser with the International Transport Workers Federation, ITF, which is a trade union-based organisation that has one organiser, has detected 202 contraventions in the wake of the scandal unearthed by The Guardianabout the treatment of non-EU migrant fishers, yet nine WRC inspectors have only issued 112 contravention notices between them. That is only slightly more than half. These figures do not add up. Something is wrong, and the Minister might be able to locate for me in her reply what the problem might be.
