後續行動: O’Mahony and co-director of the Labardie Fisher Lenny Hyde, vehemently deny the allegations of trafficking and exploitation. They said the workers' account was completely inaccurate and defamatory. It was untrue, they said, that they were involved in bringing undocumented crew into Ireland to work illegally. They added that they had told the agency the crew would be working from Crosshaven in Ireland. They denied the Filipino worked continuously without statutory rest periods and said the worker had been fully paid for the period he worked. They later added that a second Filipino crew member, who we understand arrived on the same flights as the worker, had confirmed that he had 14 hours sleep every night, and had eaten three meals a day, including a full “hotel dinner” in the middle of the day. (He has now returned to the Philippines, according to sources.) The owners also said the exploited worker was given the best of medical treatment and that they had been assured by police immigration that there was “no question of human trafficking for labour exploitation”. The agency’s Manila-based family member Rommel Turingan told The Guardian it was made clear that the $1,000 was for unlimited hours.

African and Asian migrant workers are being routinely but illegally used as cheap labour on Irish fishing trawlers working out of some of the country’s most popular tourist ports, the Guardian can reveal. A year-long investigation into the Irish prawn and whitefish sector has uncovered undocumented Ghanaian, Filipino, Egyptian and Indian fishermen manning boats in ports from Cork to Galway. They have described a catalogue of abuses, including being confined to vessels unless given permission by their skippers to go on land, and being paid less than half the Irish minimum wage that would apply if they were legally employed. They have also spoken of extreme sleep deprivation, having to work for days or nights on end with only a few hours’ sleep, and with no proper rest days. Some migrant workers claim to have been deceived and appear to have been trafficked on to trawlers for labour exploitation, an abuse that would be a form of modern slavery. Our evidence suggests that some boat owners and crewing agencies are smuggling African and Filipino workers in to Ireland through entry points at London Heathrow and Belfast airports, and then arranging for them to cross from Northern Ireland in to the Republic by road, bypassing Irish immigration controls.
