Norwegian fi sheries management, our approach on discard of fi sh
The point of this report is to highlight the need for an integrated and flexible approach to managing mixed fisheries - which in the case of many UK fisheries are extremely mixed.
Sustainable management of modern fisheries:
The management of modern fisheries has a number of objectives. The most basic
objective, upon which the others must be based, is to manage the fisheries in such a way that the fish resources can be sustained at a viable level both biologically and economically. In order to achieve a sustainable harvest, the Norwegian management of living marine resources is based on the best available scientific advice. The International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) plays a critical role in assembling and analysing information about the status of fish stocks and the provision of scientific advice on management measures.
