Charlie McConalogue (FF), Donegal

Yes, but there is no point in chiding me for having got a holding response for that period because the Deputy would have fully expected that and would have known the answer before asking the question. Now I plan to step this forward urgently. We are now fully assessing the legal situation around that, and I will promptly move forward with this Government's total commitment to backing the inshore sector and protecting the area inside the six-nautical-mile zone for the inshore sector. We will step that out as quickly as possible, making sure that we get a successful outcome to what it is we want to achieve.
