United Kingdom and Faroe Islands fisheries consultations: agreed record for 2024

Scientific cooperation

11.1 The Delegations decided that the UK and the Faroe Islands would continue to co-operate on scientific matters of mutual interest related to commercially exploited fish stocks and their associated ecosystems. The species and stocks of interest include pelagic, demersal and deep-sea stocks. Potential research topics could range from stock structure to shifts in distribution due to changes in climate and ecosystem productivity. The research cooperation would include discussions on current and future research surveys and their objectives and scope within the area of adjacent UK and Faroese waters.
