| dc.description | In October 2014, the European Commission identified Sri Lanka as a non-cooperating third country, on the basis that it was not taking sufficient action to prevent, deter and eliminate Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated (IUU) fishing; and imposed a ban on the import of raw and processed fish to the European Union (EU). The ban was lifted in the first half of 2016, in recognition of the efforts made by the Government of Sri Lanka to address the challenges. However, the Government was still in need of technical assistance to review, consolidate and update the relevant legal framework; as well as training and other capacity development to the involved bodies and entities on fishing vessel inspection and the Monitoring, Control and Surveillance (MSC) of fishing vessels, in order to effectively combat IUU fishing. | |
