Fisherman to continue hunger strike
Just over a month after claims that Ireland was imposing a “hard border” with Britain at sea, the Government’s legislation underpinning “reciprocal” inshore fishing rights between the North and the Republic will be debated in the Dáil tomorrow.
However, one of the four fishermen whose successful legal action led to the suspension of the ‘voisinage ‘ agreement between the North and the Republic intends to continue a hunger strike he started yesterday in protest over the Sea Fisheries (Amendment) Bill.
