WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR SUSTAINABLE ECONOMIC
DEVELOPMENT
BY DEPUTY J. RENOUF OF ST. BRELADE
QUESTION SUBMITTED ON MONDAY 3rd NOVEMBER 2025 ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON MONDAY 10th NOVEMBER 2025
Question
"Will the Minister provide data on funds disbursed under the Marine Support Scheme during 2024 and 2025 to date, broken down by metier and separating support for scallop diving from scallop dredging?"
Answer
The total fund delivered under the Marine Support Scheme to operators of fishing vessels in 2024 was £302,112.
The total fund delivered under the Marine Support Scheme to operators of fishing vessels in 2025 (to date) is £339,830.
The funds dispersed under the scheme are delivered within a framework which rewards promotion of fishing vessel safety (factored by safety certification, size of vessel and days at sea), employment and training, professional and vocational qualifications, certified food standards and food provenance.
The scheme does not distinguish between fishing metiers and payments are not currently assigned to any particular metier, so it is not possible to provide a breakdown in this regard.
