dc.descriptionThis is St. Kitts and Nevis’ National Plan of Action to Prevent, Deter and Eliminate Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing (NPOA−IUU). The Plan has been developed in accordance with the FAO International Plan of Action to Prevent, Deter and Eliminate Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing, adopted by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations in 2001. Protection of the coastal and marine ecosystem is a priority for St. Kitts and Nevis. The fisheries sector plays a key role in the sustainable management of the marine resources and conservation of threatened aquatic species, while supplying essential food, nutrition, employment, income and export earnings to the population of the country and to tourists. All fishing activities that degrade the marine environment and threaten the health of fish stocks in the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of St. Kitts and Nevis and the wider Caribbean region are also a threat to the health and livelihoods of the people in St. Ki tts and Nevis, and to the supply of fish, lobster and conch to other markets.
