Fisheries

Fisheries statistics come from a whole range of sources including Household Income and Expenditure Surveys and Population Censuses. These statistics include things such as:

  • Number of households involved in fishing
  • Proportion of household income which comes from fisheries
  • Proportion of the labour force engaging in fishing as their main or second activity
  • Proportion of household food expenditure spent on fish and shellfish
