What we do
We license, regulate and plan marine activities in the seas around England so that they're carried out in a sustainable way.
This helps the government achieve its vision for clean, healthy, productive and biologically diverse oceans and seas.
We’re responsible for:
• managing and monitoring fishing fleet sizes and quotas for catches
• ensuring compliance with fisheries regulations, such as fishing vessel licences, time at sea and quotas for fish and seafood
• managing funding programmes for fisheries activities
• planning and licensing for marine construction, deposits and dredging that may have an environmental, economic or social impact
• making marine nature conservation byelaws
• dealing with marine pollution emergencies, including oil spills
• helping to prevent illegal, unregulated and unreported fishing worldwide
• producing marine plans to include all marine activities, including those we don’t directly regulate
• enforcing wildlife legislation and issuing wildlife licences
