Abundant fisheries

Help regulate fisheries

The best management ideas come from those who know the fisheries the best.

The second pillar of effective fisheries management is regulation. While governments are ultimately responsible for setting the rules and regulations that govern fisheries, industry can and should contribute to designing realistic policies and regulations that will work.

Producers and processors from both industrial and small-scale fisheries should have a seat at the table during discussions about management approaches and regulations for the fisheries they are a part of.
