The answer

Answered by Rhona Brankin on 19 Sep 2001 · 28 days after it was lodged, on time

The Scottish Executive agrees with the European Committee's proposal that zonal management committees should be set up under a reformed Common Fisheries Policy. The committee's report recommends delegated decision-making powers only after an appropriate transition period. The Executive envisages zonal committees initially having an advisory role but that their scope and function should be subject to periodic review.
