Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, when the Government plans to give notice to terminate the London Fisheries Convention 1964.
This question was answered on 31st March 2017
The Government remains fully committed to controlling and managing UK waters after we leave the EU in accordance with our rights and obligations under international law.
We are considering the issue of the London Fisheries Convention carefully to ensure we have full control of UK waters after we leave the EU and, as the Prime Minister said on 29 March 2017, we hope to be able to say something about it soon.
