<p>The UK allocates quota annually to ensure that fishing opportunities are allocated
for the benefit of the whole of the UK, taking into account the needs of those within
existing Producer Organisations (POs) and the needs of the under 10m fleet. The methodology
for this allocation is set out in the Quota Management Rules, published at: <a href="https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/410774/UK_2015_Quota_management_rules.pdf"

</p><p>The UK has long championed sustainable fisheries and we continue to place scientific-based
management at the heart of policy. The UK’s coastal fishing communities are immensely
valuable and supporting them, along with the inshore fleet, is a central tenet of
our work.</p><p> </p><p> </p>
