Isle of Man 0-3 NM King Scallop Licences Policy. País/Territorio Isla de Man (RU) Tipo de documento Miscelanea Fecha 2016 Fuente FAO, FAOLEX Materia Pesca Palabra clave Pesca marítima Manejo y conservación pesquera Moluscos Autorización de pesca Uso sostenible Política/planificación Autorización/permiso Resumen This policy document of the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture (DEFA) concerns protection of the Isle of Man king scallop populations from overexploitation and sustainable management of resources of the 0-3 NM area. New licences will be issued to those vessels that were licensed to fish for king scallops when the consultation was published, which had a 0- 3 permit, and which could demonstrate a track record for fishing in the 0-3 within the reference period 2010-2016, and an appropriate economic link to the Isle of Man. The Department has established a robust process for the future issue and retention of Isle of Man 0-3 NM King Scallop Licences to make certain the stock is not exposed to increasing fishing pressure and also to ensure that licences do not become tradable commodities. The Department reserves the right to issue an Isle of Man 0-3 NM King Scallop Licence on a temporary basis or subject to whatever conditions it may deem necessary to regulate the fishery (in accordance with the Fisheries Act 2012).
