Today, in the Grand Chamber of the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) oral submissions are being heard on behalf of the Western Sahara Campaign UK (WSCUK) in its challenge against the legality of the EU – Morocco Fisheries Partnership Agreement.
Conor McCarthy, led by Kieron Beal QC, represents the WSCUK.
WSCUK argue that the UK unlawfully allowed products, originating from or processed in Western Sahara, to be imported into the UK under a trade agreement with Morocco. Proceedings were issued against DEFRA and HMRC in the High Court.
