W: W: B: Feikemanagement.blogspot.com Symposium on IUU Fishing in Southern African Waters & Beyond: Prevention And Law Enforcement Constraints & Opportunities: Enforcing South African Fisheries Laws

My Argument… In an Abalone Shell Fisheries compliance in SA today is in meltdown There is no definitive enforcement policy or strategy for M&E purposes. On 19 February 2013, Fisheries Dept reported to Parliament that – “The offshore fisheries and the EEZ are not being patrolled. We therefore cannot determine whether any IUU fishing is taking place”. SA’s fleet of patrol vessels and RIB’s are inoperative & have been so since 1 April 2012 No fisheries observer programme either A shore-based monitoring programme with significant shortcomings Arrest but without the follow-through

My Argument… on the +ve Side The Fisheries Department’s Special Investigations Unit The City of Cape Town’s Marine Law Enforcement Unit Table Mountain National Parks Marine Protected Area Management Unit

The Fixer: An Opportunity for Fisheries Schedule 4 (Part A) of the Constitution: Marine resource management vests exclusively in national government (DAFF) Both the MLRA and precedent support devolution of enforcement authority MLRA – section 78 “The Minister may assign the administration of any provision of this Act to the executive authority of a province.” History – Operation Trident (we need a clear & coherent compliance & enforcement strategy) – –Green Courts (the cases of Marx and Ross) –National, Provincial and local enforcement co-ordination (the case of abalone & lobster outside of the City of Cape Town) –Partnerships with NGO’s and fishing communities –A strong DAFF - we need boats at sea, FCO’s on the beat (not until 4pm) and an expanded SIU (the Case of Hout Bay Fishing Industries)
