Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

If one Deputy does not have a serious or substantive suggestion then the adage might be, "Call for a new Minister". The negotiations are under way. Everyone knows how the Common Fisheries Policy works. We are doing the best we can to make sure we secure as good a deal as possible for Irish fishermen and for the whole industry. We all know this is a difficult one, however. Some 35% of the fish we take out of the waters come from UK waters. The UK has now left the European Union and is no longer part of the Common Fisheries Policy.
