Although it provides lucrative rewards in the short-term, if stocks were to collapse, and there are international precedents, then the Clyde would be devoid of a material commercial fishery. This would have dire social consequences for fishing communities. As a matter of high priority we need to nurture a recovery of the mixed fishery - from the larger predatory fish downwards – through lower fishing intensity and restrictions on the destructive and unselective fishing practices which limit the sea's ability to recover its natural diversity."
