Candidate Information Pack Welcome Background Vacancy Process Timeline T’s & C’s CASE STUDY – A Day in the Life of a Marine Enforcement Officer – Emma Dixon Up early and I start the week with a 7:00am market inspection at North Shields Fish Auction Hall. I arrive to find fish being weighed and sorted into boxes by species ready for the auction at 7:30am. I use this time to chat with the auction manager about local fishing activity and trends, fishing industry compliance and the much anticipated and imminent nephrop season which will attract visiting fishing vessels from all over Scotland and Northern Ireland to the area. A colleague arrives to join me at 7:15am and we proceed to carry out some minimum size checks on cod, sole and whiting before observing the local merchants bid for their fish of the day! I speak to the fishermen to make sure they understand the landing obligations that are in place and clarify any areas that they have queries about. Back at the office and it’s time to plan for the week ahead. At the weekly team meeting we discuss the current fishing activity, industry compliance and marine licences in our area and decide where to carry out our risk based inspections. Monday afternoon is dedicated to interviewing a fisherman who was boarded previously by the Royal Navy and found to be fishing with illegal nets, a criminal offence. As lead interviewer I have created an interview plan and exhibits which I intend to show the suspect. As a criminal investigation, the interview is carried out in private and is conducted under formal caution in line with the Police and Criminal Evidence Act (1984). I have a colleague with me whose role is to make notes of what has been said during the interview, although it is also recorded onto disc. Once the interview has concluded I complete the relevant legal paperwork whilst things are still fresh in my mind and then call it a day. Candidate Information Pack
