Okay, but the key point is that there is nothing to stop a Scottish boat putting Coleraine down as a port on the register. What level of detail has the Minister seen from the Northern Ireland register? This is a fundamental point. We do not know what we are being asked to open ourselves up to here or what might be the levels of exploitation. Why are we rushing this legislation through when we do not even know whether there will be a reciprocal arrangement from Britain? This is bizarre when our relationship with Britain is up in the air. The Minister must respond with these details.
