I am glad to have the opportunity to talk on this very important matter. These measures will hurt all the small fishermen. The Minister has said that it will only affect the bigger trawlers but it will hurt small fishermen in Castletownbere, all along Berehaven, down into Dingle and Cahirciveen, up the Kenmare river, Rossdohan, Blackwater and Tahilla. The same law will apply to all those people.
