30th April 2009

Tom MacSweeney's maritime radio show, Seascapes, is dealing with some very interesting subjects this Friday on RTÉ Radio 1 (1st May, 10.30pm) including a report on the world shipping society estabished by a 13-year-old, and continues the debate on Irish eel fishing.

Also on the show:

• The Government changes its approach to the marine sphere

• The row about eels continues
