Western Waters regime
The Western Waters effort regime applies to UK fishing vessels over 15 metres in length fishing in waters to the west of Scotland, Wales, England including the ChannelĀ and south west towards France and Spain (ICES Areas VI, VII and VIII). It has become necessary to establish management measures on activity by UK vessels fishing for scallops in ICES Area VII. More information
