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). One of the objectives of the Policy is to promote transformation through allocation of fishing rights to entities owned and/or controlled by historically disadvantaged persons which shall include designated groups (youth, women and people with disabilities), and to broaden meaningful participation in a fishery (through increased participation, sharing value-creation opportunities and profits, and forging links). Only persons issued with permits in terms of the MLRA may harvest seaweed, transport seaweed harvest from a landing site to the permitted Fish Processing Establishment (FPE) and export seaweed harvest 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 seaweed fishery; ecosystem approach to fisheries; observer programme; local economic development.
