The safety of fishers at sea is a key tenet of the Welsh Government’s fisheries management policy. On 13 October I announced the Wales Seafood Strategy, which includes a clear commitment to improve fisher’s safety and minimise risks to them by working in partnership with the fishing industry and other marine regulators.
In line with our strategic priorities to support Health and Safety initiatives for the fishing industry, the Welsh Government has prioritised the relevant European Maritime and Fisheries Fund measures to enable relevant investments to progress. Article 32 is now open for applications which support the capital purchase of Health and Safety equipment on board fishing vessels.
Officials are currently working with Seafish Wales to establish a project under Article 29 to offer Health and Safety training and dissemination of professional health and safety skills and knowledge for those involved in the fishing industry.
