Byelaw 3: Crustacea Conservation 2019

NIFCA is pleased to announced that Defra has confirmed the implementation with immediate effect of the new NIFCA Crustacea Conservation byelaw. This replaces the previous Crustacea Conservation Byelaw and changes none of the provision in that byelaw, BUT it also makes permanent the requirement in the NIFCA disrtict to return berried lobsters to the sea immediately by any person fishing in this IFCA district.
