Fishing vessel weekly licence variations 7 May 2021

There are no new licence variations today.

Marine Scotland would remind vessel owners, currently fishing against the u10m pool allocations, that all fish must be caught and landed by the licensed vessel and the catch must not be transhipped or transferred prior to landing. Pool allocations for the under 10m fleet are not transferable between vessels.

Marine Scotland may review the management of the u10m pool allocations in 2021 if there are continued reports of the transferring of quota between vessels.
