Abstract

State Duma decrees to approve the appeal to Premier and to forward it to the “Parliamentary Gazette” for official publication. State Duma notes that currently quota setting for catch (harvest) of aquatic biodiversity for scientific research, control and fish farming purposes is carried out on the basis of residual principle, after validation by the Russian Government of industrial quotas for catch (harvest) of aquatic biodiversity. At the same time validation of quotas for catch (harvest) of aquatic biodiversity for scientific research, control and fish farming purposes is delayed year by year that makes it impossible collection of reliable data for the purpose of fisheries regulation. In connection to the aforementioned facts it is necessary to accelerate the validation of quotas for catch (harvest) of aquatic biodiversity for scientific research, control and fish farming purposes for the period of 2004.
