Sustainable Fisheries Framework Work Plan
The Sustainable Fisheries Framework Work Plan was developed as a response to an October 2016 Report by the Commissioner of the Environment and Sustainable Development. The report recommended that Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) should:
- set out priorities, targets, and timelines for putting in place Integrated Fisheries Management Plans for all major fish stocks
- set out priorities and timelines for establishing the reference points at which the major stocks it manages can be considered healthy, in the cautious zone, or in the critical zone
- set out priorities and timelines for identifying the measures to be taken if a major stock falls below a certain level, where this has not yet been done, so that sustainable fishing limits can be determined with greater certainty
Each year, DFO develops a work plan and reports on our priorities and targets regarding the sustainable management of Canada’s marine resources.
