Creed: No backing down over Rockall fishing rights

The Government has warned Scotland it will not back down over the deepening Rockall fishing rights stand-off and will take EU court action if the Scottish threaten fishermen with navy vessels.
Agriculture and Marine Minister Michael Creed gave unconditional backing to Irish fishermen after a Scottish minister said its navy vessels will “board” Irish boats and order them to “cease and desist” if they are found near the north Atlantic islet.
