Fish worth around €650 million are caught by EU fishing fleets in British waters each year.
The accord was finalised in a phone call between the EU’s Commissioner for Environment, Oceans and Fisheries Virginijus Sinkevicius and British Secretary of State for the Environment George Eustice. “This is good for fishermen and women, our coastal communities and our ports, as well as for the sustainable use of our marine resources,” Sinkevicius said in a statement.
The agreement guarantees the rights of EU and UK fishing fleets in EU and British waters until the end of 2021.
