Proceeding contribution from Jonathan Shaw (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 6 December 2007. It occurred during Debate on Fisheries.

Fisheries

My hon. Friend is absolutely right. All our negotiating positions for the December Council meeting will be based on science. We receive the science from the Commission and from our own scientists, both in Scotland and in the Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science. It is right to base our decisions on science and sustainability. What we all want is fish today and fish tomorrow. That is important for conservation and for the industry.
