I know nothing of this issue, but presumably we used to fish those waters under an EU deal with Norway. That deal likely remains in place, so the capacity we used to bennefit from could now presumably be used by another EU member - Denmark/Sweden being the geographically obvious options.
For Norway to not end up net out of pocket on the whole thing they would have had to have shrunk the rights for EU boats, and given them to the UK . I can't see how this would be a sensible thing for Norway to do.
It is yet another example (as if more were needed) of the absolute stupidity of this whole endeavour.
