Up to a third of the country's fishing trawlers, some 60 boats, are looking to exit the industry because of the impact of Brexit. The UK's withdrawal deal from the EU which saw fishing quotas for Irish trawlers slashed has had a 'profound' impact here, according to Bord Iascaigh Mhara. But fishers' representatives say a controversial decommissioning scheme to reduce the number of boats is not the answer; only higher fish quotas will save the industry. | RTÉ News
