Jim O'Keeffe
Ceist:122 Mr. J. O'Keeffe asked the Minister for the Marine and Natural Resources the details of the investigation into the sinking of the MFV Kylemore which resulted in the tragic loss of its skipper; his views on whether it is important to trace the cause of the accident in view of the fact there are similar boats in use around our coast and to confirm, in particular, that the boat, which is laying in 15 fathoms of water, will be raised so that technical faults, if any, can be traced; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
