Resumen

The Act amends the Marine Living Resources Act by providing with respect to small-scale fishery. It adds in section 1 of the principal Act definitions of ‘small-scale fisher’, ‘small-scale fishing’, ‘small-scale fisheries sector’ and ‘small-scale fishing community’. A consequential amendment is made to the definition of ‘total allowable catch’. The Minister and any organ of state shall have regard to the need to incorporate a community-based approach in the allocation of rights of access within the small-scale fisheries sector. Section 2 (the Minster or any other organ of state shall have regard to listed objectives and principles) of the principal Act is amended by adding the following paragraphs: (k) the need to promote equitable access to and involvement in all aspects of the fishing industry and, in particular, to rectify past prejudice against women, the youth and persons living with disabilities; (l) the need to recognise approaches to fisheries management which contribute to food security, socio-economic development and the alleviation of poverty; and (m) the need to recognise that fish may be allocated through a multi-species approach.
