Government Former State Scientist Calls on Ireland to Push for Renationalisation of EU Waters
10th February 2021
Ireland is due to bear the brunt of a return of EU quotas to Britain, at a 15 per cent overall reduction in Irish quotas
The Government’s soft-touch approach on access to Rockall’s fishing waters for Irish boats is “totally unacceptable”, a former state marine scientist has said.
As
Times.ie reports today, Dr Peter Tyndall has also called on the government to push for a renationalisation of European waters to allow coastal states greater access to their own fish stocks.
He said the EU could still handle the management of shared and migratory stocks under a “more honest” Common Fisheries Policy (CFP).
