Head of Fish Producers' Organisation welcomes financial support
More money from government to the fishing industry will 'just help [the sector] survive' according to the Manx Fish Producers' Organisation.
CEO of the body Dave Beard has welcomed the £250,000 to help keep businesses afloat.
It's as the industry has taken a hit over the coronavirus pandemic, with more than 90 per cent of exports sold in France, Spain and Italy.
Mr Beard says the extra support is therefore sorely needed:
