Résumé

These Regulations, made under the Fisheries Act, 2007, principally provides with respect to registration of the registration and licensing of local and foreign fishing vessels, but it also makes provision with respect to aquaculture and lays down some fisheries conservation measures. A licence shall not be issued under the Act in respect of- (a) a local fishing vessel; (b) a sports fishing vessel; (c) a vessel used for research or test fishing operations; or (d) a foreign fishing vessel, unless that vessel is registered on the Register of Fishing Vessels and has a responsible status in accordance with these Regulations. The Director of Fisheries shall maintain or cause to be Vessels maintained a Register of Fishing Vessels. The Director shall, on receipt of an application for registration, cause the fishing vessel to be inspected. One of the grounds of refusal to register shall be if evidence exists that gives reasonable cause to believe that the vessel has undermined the effectiveness of international conservation and management measures or has taken part in illegal fishing in the waters of another State or in international waters. If registration requirements are met, the Director shall accord the fishing vessel "a responsible status". In case of violation of the law, the Director may accord "a delinquent status" to a vessel. Specific provision is made for registration of commercial fishing canoes and the licensing of foreign fishing vessels, local fishing vessels and sports fishing vessels. Specific provision is made also with respect to licenses for research and test fishing operations and fishing on the high seas by Gambian vessels. Every licensed local and foreign fishing vessel, every licensed fishing vessel used for research or test fishing operations and every Gambian ship used for fishing on the high seas shall be equipped with a vessel monitoring system as prescribed. The operator of the vessel or his or her agent shall notify the Director or such other person or organization designated by the Director of the entry of the vessel into any port in The Gambia at least twenty-four hours prior to the entry.
