Resumen

This Policy sets out objectives, criteria and considerations that will guide the designated authority the allocation, evaluation, and management of fishing rights in the Netfish Fishery (gillnet and beach seine (treknet) fisheries). The objectives and principles of allocating fishing rights in the Fishery are set out in section 2 of the Marine Living Resources Act, 1998 (MLRA). Only persons issued with permits in terms of the MLRA may harvest, transport catch from a landing site to the permitted Fish Processing Establishment (FPE) and export netfish catch and products thereof. Matters dealt with in this Policy include: granting of fishing rights (only South African persons); duration of right; Total Allowable Catch (TAC) or Total Applied Effort (TAE); transfer of rights allocated in terms of this policy; multi-sector involvement; participation in the fishing industry of Historically Disadvantaged Individuals; criteria for applicants; evaluation of historical fishing performance of applicants who have held fishing rights in the Netfish fishery; ecosystem approach to fisheries; observer programme; local economic development. The Delegated Authority may, in order to ensure that all fishing communities share in the marine living resources, use the locality of landing sites and fishing processing establishments as scoring or tie-breaking criteria. For these purposes the Delegated Authority may give preference to applicants, with the aim of ensuring an equitable distribution of opportunities to communities along the coastline.
