Recommendation
While the fisheries deal represents an extension of the status quo, the Government also had the option of using the end of the adjustment period to reduce access to its waters for EU vessels from 2026, or to offer an extension of existing levels of access for a lesser period than 12 years. The Government should provide regular updates to Parliament on the operation of the 12- year deal as overseen by the UK-EU Specialised Committee on Fisheries. (Recommendation, Paragraph 33)
