dc.descriptionThis document reviews the fisheries laws of the following Members of the Regional Commission for Fisheries (RECOFI): the Kingdom of Bahrain, the Islamic Republic of Iran, Kuwait, the Sultanate of Oman, Qatar, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. A framework for the reviews consisted of the: use of terms; objective, scope and application of the law; institutional and policy provisions; fisheries conservation, management and development; access regime; licensing systems ; international aspects; monitoring, control and surveillance; post-harvest, trade; evidentiary provisions; judicial/administrative processes; and violations and fines/penalties. The framework also formed the basis for a synthesis of the individual reviews. The synthesis identified general gaps and constraints in legislation across the region with reference to the existing provisions, international instruments and best practices. Possible options for reviewing and overcoming the constrain ts were suggested, including reference to the implementation of international instruments and strengthening relevant legislative provisions. This review was carried out as a desk study and limited to the legislation and informal translations kindly provided by the seven RECOFI Members.
