Abstract

This chapter illustrates the international legal framework applicable to coastal State in fisheries control and enforcement. The content of this chapter shows how the transition undertaken by the UK from EU Member States and Common Fisheries Policy participant to independent coastal State does not extricate it from a complex framework of international commitments, which specify what may be considered illegal fishing, and shape and condition control and enforcement responses. It illustrates, using the case study of Rockall, the complex framework of international legal commitments in fisheries enforcement that still apply to the UK. Consequently, the UK is unlikely to remain impermeable to legal evolution in the EU in all matters involving fisheries governance, including compliance, control and enforcement.
