We want to know what you think about our draft Sea Fishing (Enforcement) Regulations 2018.

These regulations will clarify how things are enforced and reinstate some enforcement powers to Inshore Fisheries and Conservation Officers (IFCOs).

This will allow IFCOs to directly enforce EU fisheries conservation measures like rules on bass, blue fin tuna and marking of gear.
