• Maintenance of the structure, productivity, function and diversity of the ecosystem
• Conservation, management and exploitation of fish stocks
o Prevention of fully exploited, overexploited or depleted fish stocks
o Recovery of depleted populations
• Socio-economic returns close to optimum theoretical limit
• An effective management system that respects local, national and international laws and standards and incorporates institutional and operational frameworks

Principle objectives
![Page 5: FISHERIES MANAGEMENT AND MCSgfcmsitestorage.blob.core.windows.net/documents/... · International and Regional Frameworks International Fisheries Instruments of relevance to MCS UN](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052004/601771e47060a7059a7c2c11/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Conventional management approaches
Top-down (command and control) approaches
Neglected financial incentives and market mechanisms
Few fisheries management objectives
Fisheries industry focus; less consideration to small-scale fisheries
Narrowed stock/fishery scale
MCS
Poor monitoring of fisheries resources
Ineffective MCS tools
General lack of implementation and enforcement
![Page 6: FISHERIES MANAGEMENT AND MCSgfcmsitestorage.blob.core.windows.net/documents/... · International and Regional Frameworks International Fisheries Instruments of relevance to MCS UN](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052004/601771e47060a7059a7c2c11/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Trend
Inadequate management
Non-deterrent MCS
Excess fishing effort/
capacity
Declined stocks
Less catch More effort to
catch
More (preventative)
restrictions

Monitoring
SEA PORT MARKET

permits • Logbook • Notification at sea • Transshipment
documentation
• Landing declaration
• Take-over declarations
• Sales notes • Transport
documents • Catch certificate
Collection, measurement and analysis of data and information on fishing activities
◦ Catch, species composition, fishing effort, by-catch, discards, area of operation

rerouting to port
rerouting of the transport vehicle
confiscation of fishing gear, catches or fishery products;

Compliance Compliance: conformity level with the law, rules, and regulations
Preventative (voluntary) compliance
Common understanding and support from fishers, fishers’ organizations, community, and industry ◦ Awareness and understanding ◦ Increased ownership/acceptance ◦ Voluntary compliance with law and regulation ◦ Peer deterrence ◦ Promotion of participatory management ◦ Promotion of reliable data collection
Deterrent compliance/enforcement ◦ inspection and monitoring; ◦ investigation of offences; ◦ prosecutions; and ◦ fines, suspensions , confiscation and forfeitures
Compliance = Voluntary Compliance + Deterrence

Future remarks
Policy, management plans, indicators
Legislation
Practical harmonized enforceable rules, regulations, technical
measures
MCS
• Functional institutional structuring; share of responsibilities
• Human resources
• Training, awareness building
• Co-management; input of industry and fishers
• MCS technology and communication systems
• Cooperation mechanisms (national, bilateral and regional)
• Documentationon (reporting/records)
• More voluntary compliance
• Preventive actions/enforcement
