Response to International Branch from Manx Government Re - Fisheries conservation (AGM Resolution)

 Dear Alan,

 Thank you for your recent communication dated 11th October, 1996 regarding the Annual General Meeting of the Celtic League held in Lorient.

 I note the resolution regarding conservation of fish and whale stocks. The Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry will bear your resolution in mind in any further discussions.

 Regarding conservation measures in the Irish sea, we work with the Irish and U.K. Governments to try and further our conservation of fish stocks, and are seeking to introduce further conservation measures in the very near future.

 Lhiats

 Hon. Hazel Hannan
Minister
