Professor Tasman Crowe:

Different people draw different lines and there has been some recent significant discussion about whether different fishing practices should be allowed or not allowed inside six nautical miles. Twelve nautical miles is another line which is potentially useful to think about in that sense because that is our territorial waters over which we have complete control, except for the people moving through it. Outside of that, to 200 nautical miles, we are a member state within the EU and there is a discussion around the things we do to manage that space, and that is sometimes quite a complicated discussion.
