Size limits and other coastal fisheries regulations used in the Pacific Islands region / prepared by the Coastal Fisheries Management and Fisheries Information Sections of the Secretariat of the Pacific Community

This booklet is a vehicle for sharing knowledge between the islands of the Pacific Community about the basic fishery management measures that have been used in different places for regulating particularly important or potentially vulnerable species. Regulations should not be transferred verbatim from one area to another unless their situations are known to be similar. This booklet is not intended to promote any particular management measure or approach, but indicates the range of measures that have been used. It also presents the legal and fishery management precedents that have been set in various countries. This information will be useful to Pacific Island governments that are developing or revising fisheries regulations.
