NEDLAC presented the final draft Small-scale Fishery policy to each constituent member for perusal on 12 September. This is in anticipation of the NEDLAC Fishery Task Team meeting scheduled for Friday 23rd September 2011. Members were requested to submit their initial comments by the 21 September 2011.
This is the final hurdle that must still be crossed before the policy becomes final and is implemented by DAFF.
