Ceist:

105 Mr. Kenny asked the Minister for the Marine and Natural Resources the estimated number of salmon caught by licensed salmon drift net fishermen in the Bangor and Ballina Board areas of County Mayo for each of the past 20 years; his views on the figures; the numbers of salmon caught by a company (details supplied) until its buy-out by the State; the numbers caught on the River Moy until that buy-out by rod anglers and each year since by rod anglers; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [4876/02]

I propose to take Questions Nos. 104 and 105 together.

I am asking the North-Western Regional Fisheries Board to communicate directly with the Deputy in relation to the information sought.
