The UK's decision to withdraw from the London Fisheries Convention will not have an effect on the Island.
That's according to the Environment, Food and Agriculture Minister Geoffrey Boot.
Last week UK Environment Secretary Michael Gove announced the decision to leave the agreement which allows foreign countries to fish in British waters.
The department says it will continue to monitor the future of fisheries policy as the UK renegotiates its position during the Brexit process.
Mr Boot says the Island knew of the plans in advance:
Peel sewage works hits milestone
MHK to query gas buying for power generation
Yoga studio applies for sign permission
Yacht club worries over lifeboat retirement
One nuisance cyclist ticketed in more than three years
Huge floating book fair to arrive in Douglas next month
Stay safe for Hop Tu Naa tonight
