In September, the Danes offered the Minister 3,000 tonnes of mackerel quota. Is that the case?

This is a major success we have had in terms of a one-off increase in our mackerel quota. I engaged on this with my team when we identified an opportunity. At the time, we were accused by the Danish minister of conducting a midnight heist at the negotiations when we went after this particular quota. We succeeded there at the most recent December fisheries quotas talks of getting a permanent allocation.
