This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you are concerned about existing fishing practices, but we're not sure exactly what types of fishing you want to be banned, and what types of fishing you want to continue to be permitted.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.

We have published the following petitions, which you might like to sign:

Ban Bottom Trawling in UK waters: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/569153

Ban the use of super trawlers in UK waters: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/581898

Ban all fishing in UK waters, except rod and line, for 5 years: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/581588
