The fishery collaboration between Norway and Russia builds on mutual trust and willingness to find solutions. This collaboration has long traditions, and the parties have, thanks to its responsible, long-term and sustainable management, worked together to lay the basis for a strong stock situation and growth in most quotas for 2012, according the Minister for Fisheries and Coastal Affairs, Lisbeth Berg-Hansen, commenting on today’s signing of a protocol at the end of the 40th session of the Joint Norwegian-Russian Fisheries Commission.
