Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 12 December 2017
431. Deputy Pat Casey asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if a fishing vessel other than a vessel (detail supplied) has been required to be lengthened due to stability failings; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [52803/17]
View answerThe Marine Survey Office (MSO) of my Department does not require Irish Fishing Vessel owners to lengthen their vessels. However they do carry out surveys on the Irish Fishing Vessels to ensure they are complying with the relevant regulations. Any decision to lengthen fishing vessels is a matter for each owner.
