Overview

Defra would welcome your views on a proposal for multi-species management land for demersal fish stocks and nephrops.

 

Why your views matter

We want to know what you think about the EC’s proposals for a multi-species management plan for demersal fish stocks and nephrops in the North Sea.  We will use your views to refine the UK government’s response.  Our aim is to bring the biomass (i.e. the population) of fish stocks to sustainable levels and to protect the viability of our fishing industry.
