Leaving the EU means we will become an independent coastal state, taking back control of our waters for the first time in 40 years and giving UK fishermen a fairer share of fishing opportunities.<\/p>
<\/p>
We have set out our vision for future fisheries policy in the Fisheries White Paper: Sustainable Fisheries for Future Generations, and introduced the Fisheries Bill to create the powers to build a sustainable and profitable fishing industry in the best interests of the whole of the UK and future generations.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Bill enables us to control our waters, set fishing opportunities and manage fisheries for a sustainable and profitable future. Access to waters and fishing opportunities will be on our terms and for the benefit of UK fishermen.<\/p>

The Local Government Boundary Commission for England collects and publishes data annually on every local authority in England. Data derived from electoral registers in December 2017 show that:<\/p>
(a) Given that electoral divisions in England can be represented by one or two councillors, the Commission does not collect data on the average number of voters living in them. The average number of electors per county councillor in England is 9,327.<\/p>
(b) The Commission strongly believes that every English local authority is different, faces diverse challenges and represents people and communities in a variety of ways. The Commission therefore does not examine electoral division or ward data against a national average. When drawing up electoral arrangements or deciding whether to include a council in its work programme, the Commission compares the number of electors in each division with the average for the council within which it is located. The spreadsheet, which can be accessed through the following link, sets out the electoral variance of every electoral division and ward in England against the average for that local authority alongside other electorate data http://www.lgbce.org.uk/resources/electoral-data<\/a>.<\/p>"}
