Resumen
An analysis of available data has been carried out to determine how much fish and shellfish were landed from the UK’s Exclusive Economic Zone (UK EEZ) by the fishing boats of individual EU Member States, and by UK boats from the EEZs of other EU Member States, in 2016.
The results of the analysis indicate that:
- Fishing boats from eight EU Member States landed fish or shellfish caught in the UK EEZ: Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Spain, Ireland and Sweden.
- Most was landed by French, Dutch, Danish boats or Irish fishing boats, with the largest shares by Dutch boats (by weight) and French boats (by value).
- Danish, Dutch, Irish and German fishing boats predominantly landed pelagic fish from the UK EEZ, while French, Dutch, Belgian and Spanish fishing boats predominantly landed demersal fish (whitefish). Danish boats also landed substantial quantities of industrial fish (used for fishmeal production).
- UK fishing boats landed fish or shellfish from the EEZs of six other EU Member States: Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, France and Ireland.
- More than two-thirds of UK boats’ landings from other EU EEZs were caught in the Irish EEZ, and most of the remainder in the French EEZ.
- UK boats predominantly landed demersal fish from the Irish, Danish and Dutch EEZs; pelagic fish from the Irish and French EEZs; and shellfish from the Irish and French EEZs.
- In almost all cases, EU Member States’ fishing boats landed substantially more fish and shellfish from the UK EEZ than UK boats did from those States’ EEZs.
- Overall, EU fishing boats landed 10 times more fish and shellfish (6 times more by value) from the UK EEZ than UK boats did from the EU EEZ, but for most individual Member States the imbalance was even greater.
- Belgian, Dutch and Irish fishing boats had the highest level of ‘dependence’ on the UK EEZ.
- UK boats’ ‘dependence’ on other EU EEZs was much less; the most important being the Irish EEZ.
