We’ll hear how Brexit, Covid and the war in Ukraine is affecting the seafood sector in Ireland and what’s being done to help the industry. Pat was joined on the show by Jim O’Toole Chief Executive of Bord Iascaigh Mhara, Dr Ronán Cosgrove Fisheries Conservation Manager at BIM and John Lynch Owns the MFV Eblana, a 20m vessel targeting mixed fish species, mainly in the Irish Sea. He is also chairman of the Irish South and East Fishermen’s Producers Organisation which represents fishers at the national and EU level.
We were broadcasting live from the Irish Skipper Expo at University of Limerick, with Bord Iascaigh Mhara.
