Download or read book Fisheries and Sustainability written by Emma Victoria Witbooi and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 2011-11-11 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marine living resources are currently under severe threat from unsustainable use. International law urges a precautionary approach in the use of remaining fish stocks, necessitating rational domestic management of coastal fisheries and requiring foreign nations accessing these stocks to cooperate to this end. The manner in which bilateral fishing relations between the EU and various West African states have historically played out, however, has not followed this route. This book is a legal study of these relations from an inter-disciplinary and contextual perspective with particular reference to sustainability questions using three broad conceptual lenses: common resource management, integration towards sustainable development and the colonial legacy to interrogate the extent to which these interactions operated as legal instruments of sustainability.

This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first fisheries agreement between the European Community and Angola was signed in 1989 and denounced in 2006 by the EU, due to the legislative framework adopted in Angola in 2004. EU vessels currently fishing in the Angolan exclusive economic zone (EEZ) do so on the basis of direct authorisations. Since 2019, Angola has showed interest in a sustainable fisheries partnership agreement (SFPA), and both the EU and Angola have agreed to initiate exploratory discussions about a SFPA. This ex-ante evaluation was carried out in accordance with both the EU Financial Regulation and its Rules of Application and the European Commission's Better Regulation Guidelines and 'Toolbox'. A wide range of stakeholders in both the EU and Angola were consulted, the former largely using questionnaires with responses provided by email, and the latter through a field mission to Angola. A large body of relevant secondary data was also reviewed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The European Union (EU) negotiates agreements with coastal countries to obtain fishing rights for EU vessels and to support the governance and sustainable development of the local fishing sector. The Court found that these agreements were generally well managed by the European Commission, but that some improvements were needed. The quantities of fish negotiated with the coastal countries regularly exceeded the actual use made by the EU fleet, making the agreements relatively more costly than expected for the EU. The monitoring of catch data and the licencing process was not sufficiently robust, and the support provided for the sustainable development of the local fisheries sectors needed clearer eligibility conditions, and better coordination and consistency with other EU development support."--Publisher's description.

This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this evaluation study is to provide DG MARE with an overall analysis of the SFPAs features, content, implementation, results and impacts. The results of the evaluation are expected to help the Commission to understand what has worked well, be considered of added value or a success story and, for what has not worked well, why and what could have been a suitable alternative option. More specifically, the terms of reference of the assignment required the evaluation to assess: • the fit for purpose and added value of the SFPAs based on the governance framework, the socio-economic and environmental benefits and impacts that they create in the EU and in third countries. In that context it evaluates the effectiveness of SFPAs, notably the extent to which the objectives of i) the Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013 on the CFP, ii) the Communication on the external dimension of the CFP and the following 2012 Council conclusions, iii) the agreements and their implementing protocols, are met; - the extent to which the expected objectives and results fulfil the needs and expectations of EU in its different dimensions, including the EU fleet and the fisheries industry as well as local population, the partner countries, including on the distribution of the EU financial compensation between the access to the resource component and the sectoral support component; - the overall global, regional and type of agreement coherence of the current SFPAs network, in terms of policy orientations as well as in terms of concrete implementation and the overall coherence with other EU relevant policies , including the impact of SFPAs on EU Outermost Regions neighbouring SFPAs countries, and with the policies and intervention of other international organisations involved in fisheries; - the contribution of the SFPAs to development and reinforcement of the technical and scientific capacity of partner countries and their impact on the local fisheries sectors, on food security, trade relations with the EU; assess the SFPAs' contribution towards combating IUU fishing in third countries; - the sectoral support component including the programming process, the main types of activities carried out, their results, impacts, and effectiveness within the sector and in related policy areas, - the perception in terms of appreciation of SFPAs and their actions; - the relevance of SFPAs and their sectoral support with respect to the EU needs and objectives.

Download or read book Ex-post and Ex-ante Evaluation Study of the Sustainable Fisheries Partnership Agreement Between the European Union and the Republic of Cabo Verde written by and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In September 2006 the EU and Cabo Verde concluded a bilateral Fisheries Partnership Agreement (FPA). This Agreement provided fishing possibilities exclusively for highly migratory species for EU vessels fishing in Cabo Verde waters. It entered into force on 30 March 2007 and has been automatically renewed twice for periods of 5 years (29 March 2012 and 29 March 2017). The current Protocol was signed, and entered into provisional application on 23 December 2014, it will expire on 22 December 2018. The Protocol sets out the fishing opportunities and financial contributions provided for in the Sustainable Fisheries Partnership Agreement (SFPA). It grants to the EU fishing opportunities for up to 71 vessels to fish for tuna and other highly migratory species in 3 fishing categories: 28 tuna seiners, 30 surface long liners and 13 pole-and-line vessels, with a reference tonnage of 5,000 t/year. The Member States interested in fisheries activities in the EEZ of Cabo Verde are, France (FR), Portugal (PT) and Spain (ES). The annual EU public financial contribution to Cabo Verde amounts to EUR 550,000/ year out of which EUR 275,000 is earmarked for the support of the Cabo Verde fisheries policy for the first two years of the Protocol, and EUR 250,000/ year for the last two years of the Protocol. The Agreement is classified by the EU as a "tuna agreement" (as opposed to multi-species agreements); its main characteristics are provided in Table 1. The SFPA with Cabo Verde is part of a network of SFPAs with other coastal States in the Eastern Atlantic Ocean, which include Cote d'Ivoire, Liberia and São Tomé and Príncipe (tuna agreements) and Guinea Bissau, Mauritania and Morocco (multi-species agreements). The present report provides an independent ex-post evaluation study of the current four-year Protocol to the SFPA between the EU and the Republic of Cabo Verde as well as an ex-ante evaluation of a future Protocol. This final report presents information collected from various sources, including the EU/DG MARE, EU concerned Member states (FR, PT, ES) and the professional associations of EU vessel operators concerned with the availability and utilisation of fishing possibilities. It also includes the findings of a mission to Cabo Verde that took place in December 2017, during which discussions were held in Praia and Mindelo with Cabo Verdean and other stakeholders involved in the implementation of the SFPA, including public authorities, private sector and NGOs.

Book Synopsis The Contribution of International Fisheries Law to Human Development by : Nienke van der Burgt
Download or read book The Contribution of International Fisheries Law to Human Development written by Nienke van der Burgt and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 2012-11-01 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Contribution of International Fisheries Law to Human Development: An Analysis of Multilateral and ACP-EU Fisheries Instruments examines whether and how legal fisheries instruments encompass a normative consensus on human development. Focusing on both multilateral (treaties and soft-law) as well as the ACP-EU bilateral fisheries instruments, Nienke van der Burgt provides a detailed analysis as to whether these different types of legal instruments reflect the principles of equity, poverty eradication and participation, which have been identified as key indicators of human development. Moreover, specific attention is paid to whether explicit reference is made to the small-scale fisheries sector and to the role of women. Concluding that despite increasing evidence of the potential and significant contribution of fisheries towards human development, legal fisheries instruments seem to be struggling with the incorporation of a human development–centred approach, The Contribution of International Fisheries Law to Human Development is essential reading for all those involved in the fields of international environmental law and sustainable human development.

Download or read book Provision of Advice on the Management of Discards in EU Fisheries Beyond EU Waters written by and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this Specific Contract was to provide the Commission with an overview of the existing international obligations regarding the management of discards within select Regional Fisheries Management Organisations or Agreements (RFMOs) and Sustainable Fisheries Partnership Agreements (SFPAs) beyond EU waters, and to identify to what extent such international obligations are aligned or are inconsistent with Article 15 (hereafter the EU landing obligation) of the new Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) regulation, based on all phased and final provisions to be implemented by 2019. A review of RFMO management measures and SFPA protocols identified a diverse range of binding and non-binding management obligations relevant to discarding within RFMOs and SFPAs. The majority of management measures relevant to the practice of discarding were in place as a means to achieve an alternative objective (e.g. long term management plans, TAC management etc.). Amongst the following RFMOs and SFPAs reviewed for this study: Tuna RFMOs: CCSBT, IATTC, ICCAT, IOTC, WCPFC; Non-tuna RFMOs: CCAMLR, CECAF, NAFO, NEAFC, SEAFO, SIOFA, SPRFMO; SFPAs: Greenland, Mauritania, Morocco six RFMO measures (three ICCAT Recommendations and three NAFO Conservation and Enforcement measures) have the potential to lead to fishing activities inconsistent with the EU landing obligation in these regulatory areas. As a result, a total of 28 EU métiers currently active within NAFO, ICCAT and areas of NEAFC which overlap with the ICCAT area will be impacted to varying degrees by a requirement to land catches other international vessels can discard. For many of these métiers, information available on the extent of discards of species subject to the EU landing obligation is limited. It has therefore been difficult to establish the extent to which EU metiers will be impacted by identified potential inconsistencies with the EU landing obligation.

This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides an ex post and an ex ante evaluation of the Fisheries Partnership Agreement (FPA) between the European Union (EU) and Greenland1. The initial FPA ran until 31 December 2012 and is tacitly renewed for six-year periods. The current Protocol to the EU/Greenland FPA runs from 1 January 2016 to 31 December 2020. The Greenland-EU FPA/Protocol is a 'mixed agreement', which permits EU vessels to fish in Greenlandic waters for cod, pelagic and demersal redfish, Greenland halibut, shrimp, grenadier and capelin. Small amounts of bycatch (grenadier and other species) are permitted. The agreement is unique amongst the EU's fisheries agreements in that it is the only one in northern waters for which financial compensation is paid for access (other northern agreements being based on transfers/exchanges of quota), and the only agreement based on financial compensation with a relatively developed country (with implications for its ability and capacity to manage resources effectively and its sectoral support needs). Indicative annual fishing opportunities total 42 726 tonnes, with Greenland offering and the EU accepting a part of total Greenlandic quotas for individual species each year based on scientific advice and the needs of both the EU and Greenlandic private sectors. The EU also transfers part of the agreed quota to Norway and the Faroe Islands, in exchange for access by EU vessels to the waters of those third countries. The Protocol provides annually for EUR 13 168 978 from the EU budget as financial compensation for access (calculated based on reference prices for each species) including a financial reserve of EUR 1 700 000 for additional quantities of species, with actual financial compensation for access being based on the quota agreed for the EU. In addition, EU ship-owners pay authorisation fees based on prices set in the Protocol for the quota allocated. EUR 2 931 000 are also provided from the EU budget to support Greenlandic sectoral fisheries policy. The methodology for this evaluation included a review of literature and data, and consultations (some face to face, and some remotely) with stakeholders in Greenland and in the EU. The scope of the ex post evaluation covers the FPA and the Protocol, performance over the first full three calendar years (2016 to 2018), and assessment against standard evaluation criteria. The scope of the ex ante evaluation includes the needs of both parties, defining objectives, learning lessons from the past, and an assessment of future options. Planning for the future and potential appropriations and allocation of human resources are also considered.

Book Synopsis Governing Sustainable Seafood by : Simon R. Bush
Download or read book Governing Sustainable Seafood written by Simon R. Bush and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-01-08 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taking a social science approach, this book explores the governance of sustainable seafood, which is fundamental to food and nutrition security as well as being an important source of income and employment in many regions. Due to the importance of protein and other fishery and aquaculture by-products, many wild fisheries are coming under pressure, and this increasing demand has created a strong driver to expand aquaculture. As a result, the social and environmental sustainability of these production systems have come into question. The authors of the book explore the governance of sustainable seafood, taking into account the rise of social movements through environmental non-governmental organisations, the nature and perceived limits of government regulation within and beyond the state, and the promise of market-based approaches to governance such as ecolabelling. The book focuses on how concern over sustainable seafood has been translated into different current forms of governance. It then assesses what alternative governance approaches are starting to emerge that combine movements, states and markets for sustainable seafood production and consumption, and their effects. The book concludes with a vision for the future through key principles for evaluating the collective impact of governing sustainable seafood. This timely volume will be key reading for researchers interested in fisheries and aquaculture governance, as well as coastal and marine policies and sustainable food movements more broadly. It will also be of interest to practitioners and policymakers engaged in creating fishery policies and sustainable fishery development.
Book Synopsis Impact of Fisheries Partnership Agreements on Employment in the EU and in Third Countries by :
Download or read book Impact of Fisheries Partnership Agreements on Employment in the EU and in Third Countries written by and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study describes the situation of employment linked to the fourteen existing Fisheries Partnership Agreements, which the EU has entered into with third countries. It estimates the numbers of persons employed in both the EU and third country partners and where possible attributes numbers of posts to regions and specific Agreements. The study concludes that the EU's policy of supporting fisheries access to third country waters via the Fisheries Partnership Agreements has had a positive impact on employment in fisheries dependent areas of the European Union and partner countries.
