Description

To undertake a rapid evidence assessment review of previously completed and existing work to investigate and address the causes, impacts (social, environmental, and economic) and management activities relating to abandoned, lost or otherwise discarded fishing gear (ALDFG), or 'ghost gear'. This review should consider action taken in the UK, EU and globally, and has a high-level aim of identifying significant gaps in evidence as they currently stand. This should be written to help inform the UK position on the proposed EU Directive on the Reduction of the Impact of Certain Plastic Products on the Environment and future domestic policy and international action.
