Warning about boarding vessels while under the influence after two fatalities
The Minister for Transport has been urged to remind fishing crews of the dangers of boarding vessels under the influence of alcohol, following reports issued this week of two separate fatalities in ports.
The Marine Casualty Investigation Board (MCIB) found alcohol was a factor in the two unrelated incidents which occurred in Killybegs, Co Donegal in March, 2019 and Rosslare, Co Wexford in May, 2019.
