I plan to launch shortly a new decommissioning scheme for vessels 18 meters and over in the polyvalent and beamer segments of the fleet. The scheme will be implemented by Bord Iascaigh Mhara (BIM) and details of eligibility and selection criteria for the scheme will be made available when it is launched. When the scheme has been launched those interested should make an application to BIM which will be assessed against the relevant criteria.
