  2. The opportunity of the New CFP More fish in the sea A productive ecosystem • The challenges for economy • Advice that reflect stock abundance, science for society • Implementation is in the grey zone • micro management or results based? • Ecosystem integration • Match catches with quotas and quotas with catches • Market’s trust • Make “trash to cash”

  3. A natural capital principle inherent in the CFP: Define and account for impacts (art. 15) Results based management as a means for the industry to optimise http://ec.europa.eu/commission_2010-2014/damanaki/headlines/speeches/2010/10/20101018_pech_committee_en.pdf The Natural Capital Committee: Advise Government on how to ensure natural wealth unlocking opportunities for sustained prosperity and wellbeing

  4. As the human population grows, there is pressure to apply increasing top down, command, and control management to natural resources. This, however, usually results in unforeseen consequences in the form of collapsing resources, social and economic strife, and losses of biological diversity. Solutions to this pathology cannot come from further command and control (regulations) but must come from innovative approaches involving incentives Command and Control and the Pathology of Natural Resource Management C. S. HOLLING* AND GARY K. MEFFEt Avoid the micro management pathology

  5. The weapon we should engage and the strategy we should employ: Human ingenuity - put into context

  6. The tactical approach 3 layers of players 3 pillars of action - For each to do, what he does best

  7. Optimising the output of quotas is not a legislative or negotiating thing It comes with the trade and the innovative mind

  8. National Institute of Aquatic Resources Large scale pilot project on results based management The pilot will promote full catch accountability and the discard ban, and will allow a free choice of fishing gear and exempt for controls not relevant in context of full documentation (CCTV) Planning is on, and the fishery is to start 1st January - Join in

  9. A new point of view: A science merit system for societal challenges
