The Sea Fisheries Protection Authority cited operational and capacity challenges posed by Brexit and by the EU's withdrawal of Ireland's control plan for catches over concerns about under-weighing, according to its 2021 Annual Report.
The SFPA oversaw compliance and controls for over 47,000 landings of fish with an estimated value of over €435 million, some 1,345 fishing vessel inspections and, together with the Naval Service, it initiated 66 legal cases following the investigation of 95 incidents. The volume of catch certificates issued for export freight rose from around 200 to over 800, with the UK accounting for 71%.The report found the opening of a new port office in Greencastle, Co Donegal helped respond to the increase in activity.
