The Scheme seeks to enhance the sustainability of inshore fisheries, in particular small scale coastal fisheries, through stabilising and restoring inshore fish stocks, avoiding or reducing catch of juvenile and depleted stocks and reducing the impact of inshore fisheries on the marine environment, including in particular species and habitats protected under Natura 2000. The scheme supports implementation of actions identified in the Small Scale Coastal Fisheries Action Plan, in particular measures for enhanced management and conservation of inshore stocks, including for example v-notching of lobster, development and deployment of more selective fishing gear and preparation, implementation and monitoring of management plans for inshore stocks.
