The motion called on the Environment Secretary Thérèse Coffey to support the local economy and to “help in securing financial compensation for the fishing industry”
Speaking tafter the meeting, Coun Neil Swannick said: “I can’t think that anybody would not now understand that this is a big issue for fishing communities on the north-east coast.
“The net result was that there will be pressure on the secretary of state to convene a public inquiry, which was the original aim of my motion.” An independent crustacean mortality expert panel, set up by the Government to look into the deaths, has said that “it is about as likely as not that a pathogen new to UK waters – a potential disease or parasite – caused the unusual crab mortality”.
However, local crab and lobster fishermen in Whitby have said that their livelihoods are at risk due to significantly reduced catches which many blame on dredging in the Tees.
