Greens challenged on fisheries vote

THE European Parliament recently approved a proposal by Sean Ó Neachtain, MEP, to support the present status of the Irish Box for a period of ten years.

This proposal was approved by 344 votes in favour with 108 votes against.

One would normally think that such a proposal would command the support of all Irish MEPs.
