Heads of delegation from the United Kingdom, the European Union, the Faroe Islands, Greenland, Iceland and Norway met in London from 27 to 30 March 2023 to consider the management of North-East Atlantic mackerel. They noted that the parties had met several times in recent months to discuss a new suite of management measures for the stock, including a long-term quota-sharing arrangement. They agreed that, while good progress had been made in those consultations, they required more time to reach a comprehensive and inclusive set of arrangements. They also agreed to continue their consultations, and that those consultations for the remainder of 2023 would be chaired by Iceland.
Colin Faulkner, Chair of the consultations
