Services to be provided

Accurate and timely registry information (including permit holder register, vessel registers, quota and ACE ownership, and catch data) is collected under contract or by a devolved agency to support sustainability and utilisation decisions within each fishery.

These services also include the administration and registry services aspects of the introduction of new species into the Quota Management System.
