	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/02/2019 answer text <p>Most whelks in the UK are found in our inshore fisheries and as such many are subject to local controls as well as national or EU restrictions. The Inshore Fisheries and Conservation Authorities (IFCAs) have powers in place to enforce the minimum conservation reference size for whelks. Where an offence is discovered the relevant IFCA would deal with this in line with their published compliance and enforcement strategy, which allows for a range of sanctions aimed at seeking better compliance.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Camborne and Redruth answering member printed George Eustice question first answered 08/02/2019 12:58:07 answering member 3934 label Biography information for George Eustice
