European Union chief negotiator Michel Barnier will propose that 15-18% of the value of fish quota that European fleets catch in British waters be restored to the United Kingdom, RTE reported on Friday.

"EU vessels catch on average €650 million in quota each year from UK waters, meaning Barnier's offer would be worth up to €117m," RTE correspondent Tony Connelly said. "These would be in demersal and pelagic stocks."
