European Union (Amendment) Bill

The hon. Gentleman is making a powerful case about fishing. Will he confirm that there are communities in Northern Ireland—as there are in Scotland and in England—whose fishing industries have been devastated by the common fisheries policy, in contrast to those in Norway, Iceland and the Faroe Islands, which are not subject to the common fisheries policy? For those who care about the future of Northern Ireland and Scotland, that should be reason enough to vote against the treaty tonight.
