Nearly half of the UK’s most commercially valuable fish populations are either overexploited, critically low or both, according to a new report warning that the government continues to set catch limits above scientific advice.
The report found that 17 of 105 U.K. fish stocks are both overfished and overexploited. Another five stocks, including haddock and pollock, were considered healthy in 2023 but have since been downgraded.
