Proceeding contribution from Jim Shannon (Democratic Unionist Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 1 July 2026. It occurred during Debate on Fishing Industry: Government Support.


Fishing Industry: Government Support

I commend the hon. Lady, who has brought a matter to my mind and probably to the mind of the Minister and others. We have just seen a record price for a cod supper—I think the paper this week said that it was £11.51. I go back further than most Members, but I can remember when £11.50 would have bought a fish supper for four people or more. It really does put pressure on the hospitality sector.
