Fisheries Bill [HL]

Proceeding contribution from Lord Teverson (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 11 March 2020. It occurred during Debate on bills on Fisheries Bill [HL].

My Lords, I very much support the amendment. I admit that there is, perhaps uncharacteristically, a smidgen of innovation in this part of the Bill. The noble Baroness is absolutely right, and I will listen to the Minister’s reply very carefully because, as we know from Northern Ireland and “cash for ash”, these schemes can have unintended consequences. While, as always, I commend the Government on being determined to keep the discard ban active and well managed, we need to understand how this will operate practically and make sure that those unintended consequences do not arise.
