Europêche against ban on sub-800 metre trawling

Brussels, 10/03/2016 (Agence Europe) - Europêche (European association of national fishing federations and organisations) expressed its concern on Wednesday 9 March at the negotiations taking place on deep-sea fishing.

The Council reached agreement in 2015 on banning bottom trawling targeting deep-water species at depths of more than 800 metres. A further trialogue meeting of the EU institutions could be held in April, following their first meeting in December (see EUROPE 11436).
