Seafish briefing - Organisations addressing labour issues in the fishing and aquaculture sector. April 2016.
Since approximately 2006, various concerns regarding abuses of workers engaged in the seafood industry have steadily attracted more attention, from the media and civil society advocacy groups. The main concern has been reports of coercive treatment of certain categories of both sea and land-based workers, through abusive labour and recruitment practices variously referred to as slavery or slavery-like practices, forced and bonded labour, human trafficking, as well as serious forms of child labour. This has led to more monitoring, and a wide range of governmental, inter-governmental and NGO initiatives to address the concerns. There have been a number of studies into the scale of the issue but further study is required in order to determine the international scale of human rights and labour abuses in the seafood industry. This briefing note: details some of the key reviews that have looked at the scale of labour issues in the fishing and seafood sectors; and lists the organisations addressing labour rights in the fishing sector. This document was originally produced in March 2015 and was updated in April 2016. -

North West Regional Study
This report provides an overview of the fishing industry from the Scottish border in the Solway firth to the Dee Estuary and the border with Wales. The fleet comprises trawlers of up to 18m. and inshore vessels down to 6m. but other harvesting methods include tractor drawn shrimp trawls and the collection of molluscs by hand. The trawl fishery is suffering from the international overfishing of the North Irish Sea. Inshore fishermen and others attempt to meet EC inspired fish hygiene directives. Fleetwood is in serious decline as a fishing port but local fish merchants still handle considerable quantities of fish, most of which is trucked in.

South West Regional Study

The mackerel box is commented upon and the requirement for harbour investment of Newlyn and North Cornwall. The establishment of the Cornwall Fishery Management Group is highlighted.

Mussel Stocking Density Trials
During 1987 spatted mussel collector ropes were used as a basis for a suspended cultivation trial to determine the effects of reduced stocking density on the production of marketable size mussels. Excess spat were retubed for ongrowing in Pergolari mesh and marketable yields were compared with those for rope cultivation. Results clearly indicated that reducing stock density and retubing the excess gave a considerable increase in yields of marketable size mussels. This report has been produced from a scanned original and may therefore contain some formatting and other inaccuracies. In cases where this affects the technical content, a paper copy of the original report can still be obtained from Seafish. -
Brixham Fish Market Study
For a number of years Torbay Council and its partners have been working to put in place an effective plan for the regeneration of the town of Brixham, including the provision of fisheries infrastructures that would ensure the long-term viability of the local fleet and fish-related businesses. Previous studies identified major problems in the port relating to lack of space, poor road access, insufficient parking and inadequate and unhygienic facilities for the landing and sale of fish, its processing and onward distribution. As a first stop to the regeneration of the town, Torbay Development Agency (TDA) is planning a new fish market and landing quay to be built on reclaimed land and for the existing fish market to be upgraded to provide modern hygienic facilities that will accommodate fish processing and storage. -
