- Tourism Industry. (30 May 2006)
John Perry: Will the Minister of State explain the higher priority tourism issues given that a reduced financial allocation of â¬1 million was agreed at the Estimates meeting last week? He indicated clearly that was in line with the Farrell Grant Sparks report on inland fisheries. In 1999, 54,000 anglers came to Ireland while the number has now reduced to 20,000.

John Perry: On a point of clarification, Irish fishing vessel owners are facing a cut of 30,000 tonnes; the cutback of 6,000 tonnes related to 2003. The cutback of 30,000 tonnes relates to the 2005 catch and has come about as a result of unproven allegations. Why was this matter reported to the EU without any proof being offered?
