UK government announces first investment from £100 million UK Seafood Fund to boost innovation in the fishing industry. ![]() UK Seafood Fund to boost innovation in industry, level up coastal communities and support job creation across the UK. Fishing businesses across the UK will now have access to £24 million of investment to develop technology, trial new gear and support world-class research to improve the productivity and long-term sustainability of the industry. This comes as the UK industry builds back from the pandemic and benefits from new post Brexit quota arrangements. The UK fleet now has seen significant increases in quota fish stocks such as mackerel and herring. In England, under 10 metre vessels received increased quotas in a range of stocks. This more than doubled the quota they received last year. The funding released by the Government to support better science and innovation projects is the first part of £100 million UK Seafood Fund designed to level up coastal communities across the UK. It will ensure industry is able to process more fish landed in the UK, and create more job opportunities across the supply chain. It will also upskill the workforce and train new entrants, as well as investing in technology to put the UK at the cutting edge of new safe and sustainable fishing methods. Environment Secretary, George Eustice, said:

Secretary of State for Wales, Simon Hart, said:
UK Government Minister for Scotland David Duguid said:
To support industry, a Fisheries Industry Science Partnerships scheme will launch today for initial engagement with industry before inviting bids for project funding. The scheme will fund the gathering of new data to sustainably manage the UK’s fish stocks, research new types of fishing gear to boost sustainable fishing, increase confidence in fisheries science, and increase knowledge of the benefits and impacts of fish farming. Dr Bryce Stewart, Fisheries Biologist and Senior Lecturer at the University of York, said:
The £100 million fund has been divided into three pillars:
Further detail on how to bid for funding for both of these schemes will be announced in due course.
