Ceist:

137 Mr. Sargent asked the Minister for the Marine and Natural Resources if he will give details of the BIM Seafood Industry Agenda 2000-2006; and if he will also give separate details of the seafood catch landed in Balbriggan and Skerries in view of the map on page 18 of the report which amalgamates the catch at both harbours as Skerries. [8195/99]

I have arranged for a copy of the document BIM Seafood Industry Agenda 2000-2006 to be forwarded to the Deputy.

With regard to seafish catch statistics for the ports in question, landings for 1997, the latest years for which figures are available, are detailed as follows:
