The Govt. could easily outlaw the sale of cod and hence reduce our demand for it. A few people would go and see it elsewhere, but I wouldn't imagine it was many.

Oh yes, that'd go down very well with "middle England"! That's an election loser if I ever heard one.

It's far better than using quotas, which as stated above, leads to more waste. Or maybe a heavy-handed campaign?

An option has to be found which will go down well with the public. After all, even if you banned it in the UK (which I can't see happening, if it's even legally possible) then all you'd get is a massive import of Cod. The UK government definitely couldn't unilaterally ban the sale of Cod, it'd be illegal under EU law.

I'm knocking out suggestions without too much thought.
What would you do?

I don't know, EU-wide quotas or no-fishing areas seem to be the way to go.

Ban net fishing altogether. Lines only, perhaps?
