Guidance for delegation of Official Control sampling to third parties
This guidance explains the processes and considerations required to enable Local Authorities to establish third party sampling programmes, and to ensure that the sampling meets the standards required for Official Controls. -
Guide to Fisheries Management

Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning (PSP)
PSP is an illness that can occur when eating seafood, usually shellfish, that contain biotoxins. -
FS3-02.08-Fillet discolouration
Whitefish flesh naturally changes colour with age and depending on how it has been handled after capture. Initially, whitefish species such as cod and haddock have a blue, translucent colouration, which changes to white after a couple of days. After this the flesh can become yellow and then brown but it is generally considered inedible before it changes into these colours. However there are also other reasons as to why fish flesh can be classed as discoloured. This factsheet provides a very basic summary about the reasons for colour changes in whitefish. -

Utilisation in 2014 of the Quota Exchange and Access Entitlement in the EU Faroe Bi-lateral Agreement
An analysis of the fish catching activity enabled by the EU Faroe Bi-lateral Agreement in 2014 has been undertaken. Uptake by UK fishing vessels of the quota available through the exchange element of the agreement and uptake of the opportunity to fish for UK held quota in Faroese waters was analysed. Uptake by vessels from the rest of the EU and where possible the uptake by Faroese vessels is also included. Interviews were undertaken with UK pelagic industry representatives on the impact of the agreement on their sector. The analysis was requested by the Seafish Pelagic Industry Issues Group. -
A Comparison of One Tenth and Full Scale Measurements of the Drag and Geometry of a Pelagic Trawl
Current practices in modeling fishing gear have been investigated by comparing the shape and drag of a nylon pelagic trawl at one tenth scale with those of its full scale equivalents. The work has concluded that accurate modeling must take into account rope and twine elongation particularly in nylon nets and the change of drag coefficient with Reynolds Number and Froude Number is held constant.

A Summary Report of the Development and Commercial Trials of Indirect Ice Chilled display Cabinets for keeping ooked products below 5 degrees centigrade
The law currently demands that cooked, smoked and cured products are kept at or below 5<sup>o</sup>C. In practice keeping these products between 0<sup>o</sup>C and 5<sup>o</sup>C is a difficult task. The nature of these products makes them unsuitable for direct icing and mechanical refrigeration will often cause freezing or drying. The majority of retailers struggle to keep products within the legal requirements with existing equipment and practices. There is a need for improved but simple, chill display equipment, especially for use in mobile vans where facilities are often limited.

Evaluation of Mesh Measurement Methodologies for Fisheries Inspection and Research (MESH) FAIR-CT96-1452_TASK 2
In task two of the project each partner had to identify and describe problems with respect to mesh measurement procedures for scientific applications. A series of hearings was set up involving fisherment, net suppliers and the Inspectorate from all areas of England, Wales and Northern Ireland. Any problems with the measurement of mesh sizes in these sectors were discussed and noted. The procedures for ensuring adequate coverage of all sectors and areas are described. The points raised at each meeting are given in detail in Appendices I and II and condensed into points of commonality in the results section. A discussion of relevant points and conclusions is included. -
Commercial Fishing Trials of a Twin Rig Trawling System Using a Two Warp Arrangement - 'Cygnus Star'
This report describes the follow-up work resulting from initial gear handling trials of a twin-trawl system using a two-warp arrangement. The system was evaluated in a situation as near to a normal commercial fishing exercise as was possible. The exercise took place in the Nephrops fishery on the North West coast of Scotland using the MFV ‘Cygnus Star’ which spends most of its fishing time involved in this fishery. Apart from evaluating the handling of the two-warp system itself, the opportunity was taken to examine the performance of two nets rigged with rockhopper ground gears for use on hard ground. As far as we were aware, the twin-rig system has not previously been tried using rockhopper gear. The main aim of the exercise was to assess the commercial viability of operating such a system. The work carried out in this project was funded by MAFF as part of their 1987/88 Commission of Fisheries Research Projects, Code IAE16.

Fishing Trials to Evaluate the Relative Selectivity and Efficiency of Different Netting Yards Used in the Construction of Static Nets Used in the Fisheries for Sole and Place in the Eastern English Channel
Trials were carried out in the spring, summer and winter months of 1989 to evaluate the performance of different set net types, materials and mesh sizes in the sole and place fisheries of the Eastern English Channel. The trials were carried out from Hastings on the 10 m 70 hp 'ST RICHARD'. The results showed how the many variables can interact to affect both selectivity of these nets and their efficiency.
