Ceist:81. Deputy Andrew Doyle asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if he will raise the issue of the M/V Mary Kate with his EU counterparts, in both Germany and Holland and with the European Commissioner for Maritime Affairs and Fisheries, in view of the fact that the owner of the fishing boat, purchased the vessel in Holland, which was certified as being seaworthy by German maritime experts, which subsequently failed stability tests here and is currently in dry dock here and unable to put to sea and for which the owner, who has lost €1.2 million, is under increasing pressure from financial institutions to settle his debt; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
