3 July 2015

Global Trust has made available the 1st Surveillance Report for Golden redfish fisheries, certified in 2014. The objective of the Surveillance Report is to monitor for any changes/updates (after 12 months) in the management regime, regulations and their implementation, stock assemssment and status, and wider ecosystem considerations since the previous assemssment and to determine wheter these changes and performance and current practices remain consistent with the overall confidence rating scorings of the fishery allocated during initial certification. 

The unit of certification includes the Icelandic Golden redfish (Sebastes Norvegicus) commercial fishery, under state management by the Icelandic Ministry of Industries and Innovation, fished with demersal trawl (main gear), long-line, Danish seine net, gill net, and hook and line by small vessel gear within Iceland's 200 nautical miles Exclusive Economic Zone.
