Original consultation

We want your views on amendments to Annex A of the Joint Fisheries Statement (JFS).

Consultation description

We are consulting on amendments to the list of fisheries management plans included at Annex A of the JFS.

This is a joint consultation between the Welsh, UK, Scottish and Northern Ireland governments.

Under the Fisheries Act 2020, the 4 UK administrations (the fisheries policy authorities) must prepare and publish a JFS. This sets out:

  • our policies for achieving the fisheries objectives in the act
  • the intended use of fisheries management plans
  • how we have applied the fisheries objectives in formulating the policies and plans
