Regulatory Affairs

The Regulation team maintains an overview of current and emerging legislation issues relating to seafood and the marine environment. The team anticipates challenges and responds to legislative developments in the UK and Europe and communicates the views, interests and concerns of the seafood industry to policymakers. Regulation, in most cases from the European Union, is now the driving force behind many of the issues faced by the seafood industry. The Regulation team also keeps abreast of UK and EU legislation issues that are important to the seafood industry, providing seafood-specific advice and commentary.

A Study of Fleet Restructuring Options Using a Quota Simulation Model

The report defines the state of the Hull Fish Industry in early 1983 showing little prospects exist for the catching sector but that the processing sector remains buoyant by its dependence on fish from all over the UK as well as imports. A geographical analysis shows that Hull and Humberside have all the locational advantages of retaining their position as the most important processing centre in Europe.

Trials of the ABCO Pneumatic Discharger at Fleetwood

Following the voluntary liquidation of Fleetwood Fishing Vessel owners Association, two new companies, Fish Handling (Fleetwood) Co. Ltd., and Fish Ancillary Equipment Co. Ltd., have been set up to discharge the fishing vessels at Fleetwood. The port has been made more competitive by an agreement with the Dockers union, the TGWU, to cut manning levels and introduce mechanisation. With the assistance of the White Fish Authority the first of a new model ABCO pneumatic discharger has been supplied by its Canadian manufacturers, the Atlantic Bridge Co. Ltd., and the Authority has supervised commercial trials of the discharger at Fleetwood. The trials have compared the performance of the ABCO discharger with the more traditional methods of unloading bulked and boxed fish.

Mackerel Promotion Exercises Conducted in 6 Supermarkets - London Area

At the time of writing, mackerel is probably the only very large resource, apart from blue whiting, now available to the UK fishing fleet and consequently catch rates have risen dramatically during the past 3-4 years to a point approaching 10% of the total UK catch, and mackerel has now overtaken cod as the main species landed by UK vessels. However, the increased landings of mackerel have not been matched by a corresponding growth in the home market with considerable quantities in the past to or three years being either reduced to fish meal or transhipped for export to Russia and other Iron Curtain countries – with the result that this highly nutritious species is seriously under-utilised in terms of human consumption in the UK.

Mackerel Research - Omnibus survey of housewives 1976 1977 and 1978

For the past three years, as part of its on-going programme of research into consumer and trade attitudes towards mackerel, the White Fish Authority has been commissioning quantitative research in the form of annual omnibus surveys in order to determine current usage of the species. The surveys were conducted in July 1976, September 1977 and September 1978. This report deals with the third of these surveys, and its findings are compared with the findings obtained in the two previous years. The information in the report has been summarised to the extent that certain tables have been omitted, but all the research information is available from the White fish Authority should it be required.
