Study Tour of UK Fish Industry Representatives to Ijmuiden and Urk 26/28 Sept

Summary

There are considerable traditional links between the Dutch and British Fishing and processing industries and in many areas the two countries are competing in the same markets. Today there is investment by Dutch companies in UK processing firms and similarly investment by UK firms in the Netherlands Fish Industry. Both countries have to face changes brought about by the new health and hygiene standards based on the EC Directives. The purpose of the Study Tour was mainly to see how the two countries were making progress towards putting into place these standards.
