This will give cover for the first time to spinners, winders and beamers.
The scientists say that these great beamers cause no harm by dredging up the sea bed, whereas the fishermen say they do.
I should make it clear that the closed area was closed to all vessels, including beamers, from whatever country.
Beamers in particular are being hit, as they need more power and use more fuel.
Beamers have been very badly hit because of the high fuel consumption of those fishing boats.
Beamers were fishing offshore for their quotas, including plaice and flatfish, but were taking a huge by-catch of cod at the same time.
Giant beamers are scooping up everything from the sea bed, after which nothing is left.
They would like beamers banned.
