Section of white fish industry ‘will be wiped out’
Representatives of the industry are meeting the EU’s Fishing Commissioner, Joe Borg, today in Brussels to highlight their concerns.
They will be joined by three Fianna Fáil MEPs, who maintain that the fish quota proposals for next year do not make sense. Billed as a crisis meeting, the fishing representatives say the cuts are not merited in many instances and in some others they query the way the commission arrived at their decision.
