Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.

Description[?]:
| The times and places where fishing takes place are still controlled but this encourages fishermen to work harder instead of possibly relying on the state benefits for a certain period of time.

| Message | Yes thankyou but those areas designate parts of the sea that has certain behavioural paterns for the fish to habitate in. Some areas may be warmer than others and therefore may attract more fish. Fish will remain an existing species as long as they allow themselves to be. We and them are both parts of the food chain so their species is in no danger of being harmed through excessive fishing unless it doesn't have the capability to survive anyway. |
