It may be possible to substitute small vessels with new vessels of larger fishing capacity and volume after obtaining a previous licence from the Ministry of Agriculture, on condition that the capacity of the small vessels is equal to the new vessel (art. 4). It may be possible to substitute an old vessel with a new one, with developed requirements and large measures, on condition that the new vessel operates outside the Territorial Sea (art. 5). The fishing licence for pedestrians and amateurs shall be strictly limited to the use of cane or gun (art. 6). Texto completo Árabe
