We are over time, but there are a number of Deputies remaining. I ask for their co-operation in sticking to the time.

The fishing industry was mentioned. It has been brought to my attention that the Minister for agriculture was offered a quota from the Danes of 3,000 tonnes of fish, but the Minister seems to have done the reverse of the loaves and fishes miracle and returned to Ireland with 1,500 tonnes of fish. It seems that the Minister is also in negotiations with Iceland about allowing its fishing boats into Irish waters. Right now fishermen in Ireland are becoming an endangered species and it is increasingly unlikely to see fishing trawlers in Irish ports. When will the Government stand up for fishermen?

Thanks, Deputy. I am going to have to ask the Minister, Deputy McConalogue, to come back to him directly on that particular query, but this is an issue that I have taken an interest in personally. I have met the fishing organisations a few times. I think we had a good outcome in relation to mackerel not too long ago. On this particular negotiation, though, I am not across the detail, so I will have to ask the Minister to come back to the Deputy and to me with further information.
