§ Rev. Ian PaisleyTo ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what consideration the Government have given to allocation in any potential extra funding following the recent ceasefire to the fishing industry. [19922]
§ Mr. AncramSuch funding could be available under the European Union's proposed "Special Support Programme for Peace and Reconciliation in Northern Ireland". However, that programme has yet to be fully negotiated with the EU in conjunction with the Republic of Ireland. It is too early to predict who exactly the beneficiaries will be.
