Abstract

In 2007, an Equality Court in the Western Cape of South Africa ordered the national fisheries authority, together with representatives from the small-scale sector, to devise a national sector policy specific to the needs of artisanal fishers. After the circulation of numerous drafts of varying quality and credibility, the current draft small-scale policy was gazetted in August 2010.
