Written Question
Fisheries
Friday 8th December 2023

Asked by: Peter Aldous (Conservative - Waveney)

Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what steps he is taking with Cabinet colleagues to support fishing communities.

Answered by Mark Spencer - Minister of State (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs)

Fisheries are a priority for this Government. Since the fishing sector rightly want stocks to be there for the future, sustainability is critical to the economy and the environment. We are showing our support in a variety of ways.

We secured quota uplifts, amounting to £146 million by 2026, due to leaving the EU.

We have started to develop Fisheries Management Plans which allow more bespoke approaches to managing our stocks, including those that were badly protected by the Common Fisheries Policy. This will help ensure economic, environmental and social sustainability in the long term.

We have opened new sustainable fisheries for spurdog and bluefin tuna, and have responded to requests to improve the management of crawfish.

Additionally, the £100 million UK Seafood Fund is bringing long-term economic benefits to coastal communities.
