Yes, & national fishing rights should be placed before international Fishing rights within a countries waters.

 @9ZVZV4Ganswered…5mos5MO

It depends on the species being targeted and the methods that are being used for the fishing. Quotas help to protect specie population and environmentally better methods ensure that fishing does not destroy habitat or other fish species.

 @9ZTV49Tanswered…5mos5MO

Yes, and fishing should be done on more local level with foreign vessels banned from fishing outside of their national waters

 @9ZT3FBCanswered…5mos5MO

No. Irish vessels should be allowed larger quotas when fishing in Irish waters. Forgein vessels should be restricted by smaller quoatas in Irish waters. This is to allow priority for native vessels and regulate ovger-fishing from foreign vessels and EU quotas.

Yes, quotas should be stricter but only when fishing in the waters of another member state so to protect the interests of native fisheries in each member state.

 @9ZHJWDPSinn Féinanswered…6mos6MO

No, but more action has to be taken to ensure each country has a fair claim and overfishing caused by outside actors should be swiftly punished

 @9ZH47J4answered…6mos6MO

Yes, but only for large scale corporations and foreign investors that could overfish our waters.

 @9ZG2LR3answered…6mos6MO

for commercial fishing, or foreign fishing companies local owners who have learned it through generations shouldn’t have to be affected

If there’s a way to have like a cut of period for fishing like hunting and Enforce stricter laws where people aren’t supposed to fish in those areas

 @9ZCZ72Tanswered…6mos6MO

Yes there should be limitations but not a lot as we're an island it's not a huge consumption of fish so it's not too important either.

 @9ZCKKP7answered…6mos6MO

Yes but on non Irish fishing companies. The quota shouldn’t apply to Irish fishers

 @9ZBVG4Danswered…6mos6MO

No, the government should impose our own limitations on fishing quotas to better suit our country

 @9YMW3Q2answered…6mos6MO

Yes, however only for corporations and foreign investors whom are overfishing our waters.

 @9NP3QBSanswered…11mos11MO

Yes, large trawlers catching huge amounts of fish should be banned outright. Small fishing boats should continue, so small fishermen are not taking a disproportionate amount of the responsibility

 @9VB4XCHanswered…7mos7MO

 @9SWMJY6Independentanswered…8mos8MO

Ireland in particular needs to develop it's Navy and impose stricter conditions on the E.U. to prevent foreign fishermen depleting our own waters at the detriment to our own local fishing economies.

 @9SD9V9Dfrom Illinois  answered…9mos9MO

Yes, but only if the government also subsidises vocational training and educational opportunities so that those in communities that rely on fishing can remain economically viable.
