UK–EU Trade and Cooperation Agreement: Fisheries
(asked on 25th February 2021) - View Source
Question to the Department for International Trade:
What assessment she has made of the effect of the UK-EU Trade and Cooperation Agreement on the (a) shellfish and (b) fishing industries.
This question was answered on 25th February 2021
The TCA is a good deal for British fishermen, it recognises UK sovereignty over our fishing waters, delivers an immediate uplift in quota for the UK fleet and ensures there are zero tariffs on trade in UK and EU goods. We continue to support the industry through the unique circumstances created by the COVID pandemic and adjusting to the new requirements.
