Senator Finucane and the Minister of State mentioned the danger of farmed salmon escaping into the wild, mixing with wild salmon and damaging it. I am not an opponent of genetically modified organisms and do not say we must never move in that direction. We must start a balanced debate on that issue in the years ahead. However, I am frightened by what could happen given what I hear has happened on occasions – perhaps not in Ireland but more likely in Norway where I have heard genetic modifications to salmon have taken place to enable them to grow to a larger size at a much faster rate. Some of those large fish could have escaped into the sea, and perhaps they have. As they are so powerful and large, they could infiltrate the wild salmon. There is a danger they could damage that entire industry which is worldwide rather than confined to one area. The business is a delicate plant in so much as anything could go wrong with it. We saw what happened with BSE in Britain, so we can easily appreciate what could go wrong with this industry.
