Text

I thank the Minister for his response and invitation; indeed, I will take him up on that. The crux of it is, Minister, that I want you to commit to carrying out a survey to determine the current stock levels of trout in Lough Neagh to establish how long current levels will last and to avoid the trout stocks reaching a critical level, as pollan and eel stocks in Lough Neagh have done.
