The fishing industry is of major importance to the economy of Cork South-West. It is our obligation to protect the fishing industry in general. Brexit has the potential to have a detrimental effect on the fishing industry as 60% of our total mackerel catch and 40% of our lobster catch are caught in UK waters. Has the Taoiseach any plans to set up a mitigation fund to protect the fishing industry?
