Proceeding contribution from Lord Davies of Oldham (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 28 January 2009. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Marine and Coastal Access Bill [HL].

Marine and Coastal Access Bill [HL]

The negotiations are about co-operation on the fisheries policy. Obviously, the Irish have their interests with regard to the management of the sea as well as their role in relation to the common fisheries policy. But these are not acute issues of boundary definition; they are about how effective co-operation occurs and about policing and sustaining the control regime with regard to the fisheries policy. The negotiations are not boundary issues in terms of the actual territory limits. I am talking about land, of course; territory is hardly the right word. But I do not think that the issues are as serious as that.
