The time pointed to a recent change in the UK government’s catch rules. The background is that the population of the species would have recovered. Before the fishing ban in 2010, the specialty – often under the name “rock salmon” which hardly sounds like a shark, or in combination with chips as “rock and chips” – was mainly offered in southern England.
The change brings some relief to fish and chip shops and pubs: they usually use cod for the British classic. Since the beginning of the Russian offensive war, they have been struggling with high import costs and rising prices for energy, other food and investments.
“We’ve looked at all possible alternatives from South African hake to hake from the US Pacific and cod from Norway, so anything that puts some pressure on supply chains,” Andrew Cook of the National Association of Fish Fryers told the Financial Times. .
Environmental groups condemned the move: The dogfish remains an endangered species, Charlotte Coombes of the Marine Conservation Society told the newspaper. The lifting of the fishing ban carries the risk that the dogfish populations will shrink again if you are not careful enough.
