MEPs Call On Taoiseach To Compensate Arklow Fisherman For Faulty Vessels

A group of MEPs have written a letter to Taoiseach Michael Martin to clarify why the Irish government has failed to offer compensation to an Arklow fisherman.

In January 2008 CJ Gaffney found a number of his trawlers, including the Mary Kate were classified as seriously unstable.

MEP Sean Kelly says the matter needs to be addressed as a matter of urgency.
