Ceist:

302. Deputy Clare Daly asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the reason Bord Iascaigh Mhara is hiring new staff in Clonakilty at salaries of between €65,000 and €75,000, despite the fact that staff in Dún Laoghaire are already doing the work that is advertised in the vacancy.

Bord Iascaigh Mhara (BIM) is an independent statutory body and the matter referred to by the Deputy is an operational decision and is therefore a matter for BIM itself. I have forwarded the Deputy’s query to BIM for direct response.
