Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, if she will request the Environment Agency to conduct a public information campaign for non-UK passport holders on fish stock management in the UK's waterways and rivers to improve the long-term sustainability of freshwater fish stocks.
The Environment Agency funds a targeted campaign called “Building Bridges” which educates migrant anglers about English fishing laws and customs. The project operates at a national level, as well as focussing on specific areas with high numbers of migrant anglers. It is currently delivered by the Angling Trust.
