Fishing industry gets cash boost

News from the BBC - Northern Ireland's fishing industry is to be given a £25m investment by the assembly.

Details of the funding will be made public later on Wednesday by Agriculture Minister Michelle Gildernew. Ms Gildernew will make the announcement when she visits the fishing ports at Kilkeel, Ardglass and Portavogie.

The funding is ahead of key negotiations at this December's fishing council in Brussels.
