HC Deb 06 December 1995 vol 268 c233W
Mr. David Nicholson

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what proposals he has to amend the United Kingdom quota for monkfish to take account of the practicalities of fishing in the English channel. [4013]

Mr. Baldry

For 1996 I propose to support an increase in the total allowable catch and hence the UK quota for monkfish in International Council for the Exploration of the Seas area VII. This includes the English channel.
