A fisheries industry perspective on the priorities for a new UK Government: pre-election roundtable
Recorded Friday 28th June
This live online event provided an opportunity to discuss the priorities that a new UK Government could consider, this time from a fisheries industry perspective.
Panellists were asked what they would like to see from a new government and whether this could drive positive change for ocean and coastal management.
The UK general election takes place on 4th July and there will be a new Government in 2024, whatever the colour. Fresh priorities, radical ideas or more of the same? – whatever the election brings, the next term of government will be critical for marine management across the UK.

The Panel
The live online panel discussion will be chaired by Prof. Dickon Howell, Director of Ocean & Coastal Futures and HMC. The panellists include:
