Fisheries Bilateral Agreements

Fisheries Bilateral Agreements are annual negotiations led by the Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs to set UK fishing opportunities and quotas with neighbouring nations including the EU, Faroe Islands, and Norway. These agreements cover key stocks such as North-East Atlantic mackerel and blue whiting and are essential post-Brexit arrangements for managing shared fish resources.
