Question:33 Mr. Durkan asked the Minister for the Marine and Natural Resources the plans, if any, he has to further develop the fishing industry, with particular reference to the quality and tonnage of the Irish fishing fleet; the fish species available; whether he can ensure a livelihood for those involved in the industry in the future comparable to that available in other EU countries; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
