Description

The objectives of this steering group and this work are as follows:
1) to gain a more detailing understanding of fishing effort displacement when management measures are introduced within MPAs. This understanding will enable better protection and management of the marine environment i.e. more considered and effective environmental outcomes.
2) to develop tools/guidance to help fisheries/MPA managers to "account for" displacement, and articulate what the likely displacement might be. This work could aid the development of Impact Assessments that accompany proposed management measures
3) To set out the various options that are available for regulators to use that can mitigate impacts arising from fisheries displacement.
