It was made illegal to sell in England and Wales in 1998 but you didn't
need a licence to keep it. Some changes were made to the legislation
and Scotland were about to bring their legislation into line with the
rest of the UK last year. I don't know what the changes were though but
you may be able to find out if they affect you at

You are covered by a general licence so you are OK. They weren't going
to have general licences originally so the legislation was expected to
be tighter than in the rest of the UK but they have gone for it for
some fish and your grass carp is included.
