Will the Minister confirm how many times the Lady Megan fisheries patrol vessel has left Conwy Marina over the last two years?
Answered by Minister for Rural Affairs and North Wales, and Trefnydd | Answered on 04/05/2022
Fisheries Patrol Vessel (FPV) Lady Megan has undertaken 9 patrols out of Conwy during the last two years, 11 patrols have also been undertaken from other North Wales marinas during this period. A shortfall in crew, and maintenance work, has impacted the number of days Lady Megan has been able to patrol. We are taking steps to address this issue.
At sea enforcement in North Wales has also been undertaken by FPV Catrin and FPV Rhodri Morgan during this period.
