22 Feb 2021 --- The UK government plans to enhance financial support for the nation’s seafood industry with cash grants for seafood and aquaculture businesses across Britain. It comes as the COVID-19 pandemic has led to the closure of critical markets, and this has been exacerbated by issues faced by exporters at the UK-Europe border. The expanded cash injection, as part of the Seafood Disruption Support Scheme, closely follows the Government making £23 million (US$32.2 million) available for seafood exporters that suffered financial losses because of delays related to the export of fresh or live fish and shellfish to the EU during January.
