UK Relations with EU: Fisheries

Asked by Mike WoodConservativeCabinet OfficeTabled Answered 2 May 2025UIN 47688

The question

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what recent discussions he has had with the European Union on fishing rights.

Answered by Nick Thomas-Symonds

We are discussing a range of issues with the EU and I met my counterpart Maroš Šefčovič in London last week (29 April). We will not give a running commentary on those discussions. We remain committed to protecting the interests of our fishers and meeting our commitments on marine protection.
