Closed Extend areas reserved for domestic fishing from 6 to 12 miles by end of 2021

Closed on

We need security for our inshore fishers as well as our Bass stocks, which are often most important to smaller fishing communities, which are the ones that can struggle as a result of quota allocation.

A 5.5 year transition to take back our waters is too long. More bass taken from our waters. No doubt more super trawlers in the Channel too. By the end of the 5.5 year transition period it would be 10 years since the Brexit vote.
