Ireland has been given the go-ahead from the EU to bail out its fishing industry from the fuel crisis.

Until Thursday, any aid granted by a member of the EU was not allowed if it gave its fishing fleet any unfair advantage over other member states. https://t.co/GRE8VhyXik

I welcome the €32 million mackerel agreement secured by @timmydooley at the EU Agrifish Council today. It is a win. Irish fleets still face the loss of over half of their 2025 EU fishing quota. Ireland controls 12% of EU waters but receives less than 6% of quotas. Lots to do!
