Abstract:

Namibia has some of the richest fish resources in the world, but before Independence in 1990, these resources had been over-exploited and become depleted because of unregulated fishing. On attaining Independence, the new Government called upon Norway to assist in establishing an Exclusive Economic Zone, a system of fisheries research, appropriate legislation and a monitoring, control and surveillance system.
