Résumé

The present Act lays down provisions relating to the encouragement and regulation of an aquaculture industry in the province of New Foundland. The purpose of this Act is to govern the conduct of aquaculture in the province in order to (a) promote, in consultation with the private sector, the prudent and orderly development of an aquaculture industry; (b) secure the property rights of those carrying on aquaculture; (c) minimize conflicts with competing interests and uses; and (d) help in consultative and cooperative decision-making within the province and between the government of the province and the Government of Canada. The Act contains at the outset a definition clause relating to various terms therein employed, such as “aquaculture”, “aquaculture facility”, “aquaculture gear”, “aquaculture inspector”, “aquaculture licence”, “aquatic plants and animals”, “water”. The text consists of 15 sections of which the most important ones are: Aquaculture licence (sect. 4); Inspection (6); Report of disease (sect. 7); Committees (sect. 10); Penalty (sect. 15).
