Several crucial quotas bumped up as UK, Norway, EU reach fisheries agreements for 2024

This year, the UK, Norway and the EU spent a lot of time reaching an agreement on cod and North Sea herring.

James Anderson, skipper of the whitefish vessel Alison Kay (LK57), and chair of the Shetland Fishermen’s Association, said that quota increases across all of these fish stocks was a statement of confidence in the condition of Scotland’s seas.
