Agriculture and Fisheries: Statements, Questions and Answers
1:00 pm
Brian Ó Domhnaill (Fianna Fail)
I have touched on three or four questions and have two final ones. Will the Minister consider replacing the criminal sanctions system applicable to minor fisheries offences with an administrative sanctions system to bring Ireland into line with other European countries? Will he consider reopening salmon fishing on a restricted, managed basis for island fishermen on a pilot basis over 24 months so the industry can prove itself and carry on from there?
