Brexit 'open season' for fish poaching, Mick Antoniw claims

Brexit will lead to an "open season" for illegal fishing in Welsh waters, Counsel General Mick Antoniw has said.

In September three vessels were fined a total of £62,000 for scallop fishing offences in Welsh waters.

Mr Antoniw said Britain's exit from the EU would make illegal fishing harder to police as there would no longer be any agreements with EU vessels.

Len Walters, a fisherman in Cardigan Bay, called the comments "staggering" and said the EU had been "devastating" for the Welsh fishing industry.
