Fishery Policy: Statements.
I take Senator Finucane's point regarding the dumping of salmon in a bog in Connemara. The salmon may not decompose but whether it decomposes is irrelevant because it should not be dumped in the first place. In particular, it should not be dumped in a place that is beside one of the best fisheries in the country in Costello. This fishery was written about by T. C. Kingsmill Moore in A Man May Fish which is regarded as a great piece of Irish literature. It is not just an angling book, but it is the greatest angling book and a great piece of literature.
