OSLO/COPENHAGEN—Norway, Britain, and the European Union have reached a trilateral deal on catch limits for jointly managed North Sea fish stocks following the UK’s exit from the EU, the three parties said on Tuesday.
The new trilateral deal, covering common North Sea fishing quotas for cod, haddock, plaice, whiting, herring, and saithe, is the first step toward ending legal havoc in key fishing waters since Britain completed its exit from the EU on Dec. 31.
