Closer on the level playing field, fish still an issue.
Quote:
In briefings to EU ambassadors and MEPs in Brussels, the bloc’s chief negotiator said Downing Street had revised its demand down from 80% but that it was unclear whether the divide could be bridged in the time remaining, prompting member states to caution against rushing into a deal.
The EU has so far offered the repatriation of 15%-18% of fishing catches. On the “level playing field” provisions, common ground is slowly being found, with the UK offering greater flexibility in recent days over a mechanism to ensure neither side can gain a competitive advantage by deregulating over time.
