NSRAC Socio-Economic ProtocolNSRAC Socio-Economic Protocol
((adopted in June 2006)adopted in June 2006) 1. What positive and/or negative socio-economic implications does
NSRAC’s policy proposal/advice have for any sector of the fisheries industry or for associated fishing communities?
2. Are these positive and negative implications acceptable and how can they best be managed? For example, by the introduction of social or economic fisheries management instruments, such as short-term compensatory schemes, infrastructural subsidies and incentive schemes relating to sustainable fisheries practices.
3. Where appropriate, how do the likely socio-economic impacts of NSRAC's recommendation differ from those of the Commission's proposal?
A necessary part of this Protocol is that NSRAC commits to communicating to the Commission, the resultant discussions about the socio-economic implications of policy proposals/advice and any agreed recommendations.

BackgroundBackground The FP5-funded European Fisheries Ecosystem Plan
(EFEP) project developed a Fisheries Ecosystem Plan (FEP) for European waters, using the North Sea as a case study.
EFEP incorporated social and political sciences, marine ecology, fisheries science and mathematical modelling to identify the effects of fisheries management scenarios (including changes in effort, changes in gear types and spatial closures) on the ecosystem, and their acceptability to a broad range of marine stakeholders including fishers, fish processors, managers, policy makers, scientists and environmentalists.
EFEP also developed a step-wise framework for the transition of management from the current regime to an ecosystem approach, and an outline of how the FEP could be made operational within existing legislation.
MEFEPOMEFEPO objectivesobjectives To show how an ecosystem approach to fisheries can be made
operational within three major European regions (North Sea, North Western Waters and the South Western Waters RAC regions) by identifying the management objectives, and the operational strategies required to achieve those objectives, using economic, social and ecological approaches.
To evaluate the different modes of fisheries governance, and their combinations, and their implications on the development of the institutional frameworks used to manage the fisheries to provide a transitional framework towards a mature ecosystem approach to fisheries management.
To develop operational FEPs for the three marine regions targeted at an audience of non-scientists with managerial, policy and RAC roles, and which provides a vision of an mature ecosystem approach and a description of how it can be delivered.
