At a meeting last year of the Oireachtas Joint Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine about the sustainability of coastal and rural communities an undertaking was given that a pilot scheme for the fishing of spurdog, also known as rock salmon, might be considered in selected areas. We have not yet heard anything about that. I have asked about it several times. Will a spurdog, rock salmon, fishery be put in place on a pilot basis?

I have to admit that I am not in a position to answer. I will have to ask the appropriate Minister to respond.
