The Environmental Affairs Department’s Marine and Coastal Management branch is embarking on a four-week road-show.
The road show is for the cluster D and C fisheries sectors along the South African coastline.
In a statement the department’s Carol Moses say the show is scheduled from Monday November 16 to Friday December the 1 in an attempt to ensure the participation of every long-term fishing rights holder.
“The roadshow forms part of the performance reviews of long-term Right Holders in seventeen fishing sectors in South Africa. Participation of all right holders is compulsory,” Moses said.
Moses says the performance reviews are aimed to ensure that the objectives of the fisheries are being met in terms of maintaining or improving transformation.
The reviews are also aimed at the creation of an environment for investment and job creation; and supporting the economic viability as well as environmental sustainability of the fisheries.
“All Right Holders in the affected sectors are expected to attend an interview where Departmental officials will gather information in respect of the criteria upon which Right Holders’ performance will be assessed,” added Moses.
