Objective
The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of a common regional management regime in the Irish Sea on the nephrops and whitefish fisheries and the coastal communities, which derive part of their income from these fisheries.
From an effective management regime, the rejuvenation of these two fisheries may be envisaged. Such a regime will necessarily impose costs and benefits which it is the purpose of the study to identify from the application of models developed in an earlier study and their synthesis into a single entity.
It will be understood that a common management regime for the region may also result in redistribution of costs and benefits and that this redistribution may or may not be desirable. Another objective of the study will be to identify and if possible quantify these effects. From this it may be possible to encourage those seen as desirable and to provide countermeasures for those that are not.
The objectives therefore are:
1. To identify a management regime likely to be effective as a means of regional management of the Irish Sea,
2. To synthesise the existing, bio-economic models of the Irish Sea and to apply them in restricted form to the nephrops and whitefish fisheries,
3. To quantify the distribution and redistribution of costs and benefits,
4. Using the Irish Sea nephrops and whitefish fisheries as an example, to show the benefits which can be obtained by restoring the rate of fishing, from its present excessive level as nearly as possible to an optimal level.
The study will cover the area of the Irish Sea Ices Area VIIA north of Latitude 53 degrees North. The part of the Irish Sea Ices Area VIIA south of this line is relatively barren except the extreme south, which in most respects is part of the Celtic Sea fishery.
