More prawns, skate and rays for under 10s
The MFA and other UK fisheries administrations have increased the catch limit for North Sea nephrops for under 10m vessels to 15 tonnes per vessel per quarter (up from 10 tonnes)
This increase will help make sure that UK fishermen in the North Sea can take full advantage of the summer nephrops fishery according to Minister Shaw.
North Sea skates and rays have now been added to the list of stocks for which leasing is possible to provide additional quota.
