A consultation is to be launched into plans to restrict shrimp fishing in the Wash.

The body which oversees fishing along the coast, the Eastern Inshore Fisheries and Conservation Authority (EIFCA), wants to close off 14% of the current shrimp catching grounds in order to preserve the seabed.

The proposal has angered some in the industry who say it could affect their livelihoods, but EIFCA says it believes that with so much of the Wash still open, catches won't be affected. 

The consultation will be launched in January and a final decision will be taken in the spring.

Since last year, schools have had a statutory duty to stop people being drawn into terrorism.  

Easton and Otley College, external has published a leaflet with advice on how to recognise the onset of extremism, mentioning things like changes in behaviour and appearance.

The college's vice principal says it's been embraced by staff, but Des Hart of the National Union of Teachers (NUT) says it's a distraction for teachers.

"The reason why an adolescent changes their behaviour pattern could be many, and it's very difficult to identify one specific thing in respect of the prevent strategy when growing kids have all sorts of pressures," he said.

"It's another burden that teachers have to carry."

Police say they've carried out five raids on properties in the past two weeks as they try to curb drug dealing in the county.

The force believes drug dealers have moved from places including London to rural areas where they believe they can "safely" deal.

One house in Great Yarmouth has been closed down for three months to prevent alleged drug trading and anti-social behaviour. 

Assistant Chief Constable Mike Fawcett says dealers use a tactic called 'cuckooing' to find themselves a base to trade locally, and often use vulnerable young people and teenagers to work for them.

"Drug dealers by virtue of threats or by giving drugs to people take over their address so that address becomes a location from which they start to deal from," he said. 

"Part of an offender’s success in keeping the drugs in the county at the moment is to prey on people who are too frightened and afraid to speak up about how they are being abused."
