Question:90 Mr. Allen asked the Minister for the Marine and Natural Resources if he will explain, in relation to the issuing of draftnet licences containing restrictive conditions, the footnote which states that any aggrieved person could appeal the conditions imposed within 28 days after 16 January 1998, despite the fact that the licence and conditions were not provided to the applicants until April 1998, which made it impossible for aggrieved persons to use their rights to appeal the conditions to the High Court.
