Mr. Teddy Taylor
asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food under what powers Her Majesty's Government will be able to act to prevent vessels from other European Economic Community nations fishing within all Great Britain's territorial waters after 31 December 1982; and if he will make a statement.
Mr. Buchanan-Smith
Article 103 of the Act of Accession to the European Communities provides for limitations to be agreed by the Council of Ministers on access to maritime waters after 31 December 1982. Her Majesty's Government remain determined to secure agreement on satisfactory arrangements under this provision.
