"The Agreement between the EC and the Republic of Guinea-Bissau for the period from June 2007 to June 2011, provides for the granting of 37 fishing licences, four of them for Portugal.
A total of 35% of the EC financial contribution is allocated to the support of initiatives taken in the context of the sectoral fisheries policy drawn up by Guinea-Bissau. The emphasis is placed upon improving the health and hygiene conditions of fishery products and the monitoring, control and surveillance of fishing activities. That is a particularly important area for action, bearing in mind that, according to international bodies, fishery resources in that country have been noticeably affected due, amongst other things, to illegal, unregulated fishing.
The agreement also provides for the compulsory employment of local seamen, that is from Guinea-Bissau, in accordance with the vessel’s gross tonnage. As in other agreements, the International Labour Organisation (ILO) Declaration will apply to those seamen.
Article 10 of the agreement also provides for the setting up of joint ventures between Community operators and Guinea-Bissau operators with a view to the joint exploitation of the resources. That possibility is advantageous for Community vessels insofar as they will thus be exempt from the payment of licence fees."@en1
