I thank Senator David Norris for his amendment and Senators Gerald Nash, Kevin Humphreys and Pádraig Mac Lochlainn for their contributions.

Senator David Norris has proposed an amendment which seeks to remove section 10(1)(a) from the Bill. It would have the effect of removing the principle of access for sea fishing boats owned and operated in Northern Ireland to fish in our zero to six nautical mile zone. In a way, I am perplexed by the Senator's approach to this matter-----
