Consultation description

We want to know what you think about how we plan to implement marketing standards and labelling requirements in England and Wales. This applies to fishery and aquaculture products such as fresh, chilled and frozen fish. Specifically, we are seeking views on implementing:

• marketing standards in England and Wales
• mandatory and voluntary labelling requirements in England

These standards are part of the Common Organisation of the Markets (CMO) policy for managing the EU market in fishery and aquaculture products .

This is 1 of 3 consultations we are asking you about as part of the new Common Fisheries Policy. You can read more about this package of reforms in the written ministerial statement. The other 2 consultations in this package are:

• proposals to implement the pelagic landing obligation in England
• the UK’s proposed strategy to implement the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund
