good point Paul W in norway that system is actually in place and the discards are taken ashore to be used as fishmeal and i think it's actually illigal to dump but they are also not a member of the EU. In britain fishing is a small buisness compaired to other indutaries but if you go to france or spain where they have big fleets of ships and alot of people employed in the industary and it has been know for polititions to be unseated by the people power so they have to get a good deal for there fishermen or face the conciquences when they get home.
in britian you just get ignored
