They keep tightening the screws. The bureaucrats, that is. They just can’t help it.

The Department for Transport initially said the decision was made to stop fishermen risking their own lives at work.
Commercial fishing is a pretty risky occupation for skinny fisherman too. According to OSHA the most dangerous in the US, can't imagine the UK is any different

Can anyone show me where in the Constitution there is an enumerated power for the Congress or Executive to implement BMI limits on private employers?
I will scream if you say The Commerce Clause.

>>But after criticism from the industry, the rules will now only apply to larger boats which are bigger than 10 meters long.
The headline is misleading. They didn’t revoke the rule for everyone, just for really tiny fishing boats.

“This means that an average man of 5ft 10in who weighs more than 17st 6lbs or a 6ft man of around 19st would not be allowed on fishing boats.”
So a 5’10” man weighing more than 244 pounds or a 6’ tall man more than 266 pounds would be unable to fish commercially. This would keep tons of very health athletic people from fishing.

You’re fat, so you legally can’t be active, according to the government.

BMI alone is a poor indicator of health. A 5’10 man who works out can easily weigh 250+. It’s not a one size fits all world.

Fisheries Minister, Mark Spencer, said: 'Vessels of 10 metres and under form a vital part of the UK's fishing industry, and today we're taking action to ensure those who work on them will not face the cost of medical assessments. Why would the cost of a medical assessment mandated by government in a country with Socialized Medicine cost the worker anything?

UK is very very top heavy with bureaucrats. They arouse themselves every once in a while. To come up with something dumb.
Same thing here with useless eaters in the Federal bureaucracy come up with nonsense such as banning gas stoves. They retreated on this. They will over regulate them to make a new one super-expensive.
Forcing EVs on the public is another one. This is Federal A-holes trying to look busy. When reality is they are useless and over paid.
