Seafish Economic Analysis: Contribution to fishing made by non-EEA crew members

Summary

This paper reviews relevant evidence and presents broad estimates of the contribution made to fishing in key fleet segments in Scotland and in Northern Ireland by crew members from non-EEA countries. It also addresses the question, if non-EEA crew were removed, what might the impacts on industry be in the short, medium and longer term?
