GALWAY WEST TD TO STAND BY DECISIONS MADE ON LOST AT SEA SCHEME

Date Published: 03-Feb-2010

Galway West TD Frank Fahey says he continues to stand by the decisions he made on the ‘lost at sea scheme’.

A debate on the ombudsman report into a complaint about the scheme will take place in the Daíl tommorow.

Deputy Fahey was the then Minister for Marine and Natural resources who set up the scheme in late 2000 to help those who had lost fishing vessels in the 1980s.
