Analysis of fishing quota shares in the EU-UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement

Analysis of fishing quota shares in the EU-UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement

Documents

Details

On 30 December 2020, the United Kingdom and the European Union signed the EU-UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement (TCA) . Annexes FISH.1 and FISH.2 detail how 105 quota fish stocks will be shared between the two parties. The following report analyses these changes to quota shares, including providing methodology and caveats for figures already in the public domain.

This is a standalone report that discusses the outcome of the EU-UK deal only and does not account for the outcome of annual negotiations that were completed after the UK-EU Trade and Cooperation Agreement was signed. This analysis only covers fish stocks subject to quota management and therefore does not include non-quota stocks or account for the impact of access arrangements.
