Purpose
Study made for the Nordic Council and presented for the Nordic fisheries Ministers at the Faroe Islands in 2006
To focus on the Nordic fisheries in a socio-economic perspective
The purpose of fisheries management• Socio-economic return• Operational profit• Regional policies – populate remote areas and employment• Fleet structure – coastal fisheries
Focus on the socio-economic return
Slide 4
Definitions
Socio-economic return of fisheries:
A net-surplus which on a given time is left for the remuneration of capital and labour beyond what is achieved in other businesses.
Calculation:Turnover – costs (excluding for labour and capital)– costs of labour in alternative use– costs of capital in alternative useSocio-economic return
Maximum socio-economic return:
The annual maximum remuneration which in the long run is left after payment of capital and labour beyond what is achieved in other businesses

Current and maximum socio-economic return in multi-species fisheries
Biology:• Based on ICES ACFM advise – SSB and fishing mortality• MSY determined by assumption as the SSB which gives the
largest possible sustained yield • Fishing mortality assumed sustainable and includes risk
through recruitment -> shift curve up/down

Cases
Individual transferable quotas in the Icelandic trawler fishery. Individual non-transferable quotas in the Norwegian coastal fishery. Days-at-sea regulation of pair-trawler fishery at the Faroe Islands. Rations regulated pelagic fishery in Sweden. Licence regulated mussel fishery in Denmark.

The maximum socio-economic return
Methods: Bio-economic model No. of days at sea determined
Assumptions:1. Unchanged fleet structure and unchanged fishing pattern. 2. Fishing mortality today is in accordance with the precautio-
nary principle. 3. The state of stocks for stocks without biological information
follow the state of the stocks for which information is available.
4. The maximum capacity utilisation is 300/225 days.
Slide 12
The maximum socio-economic return
The socio-economic return can be over-estimated in Iceland, the Faroe Islands and Norway The socio-economic return can be increased in all cases. The relative low maximum socio-economic return in Norway reveal structural relations related to regional priorities

Conclusions
Fisheries have socio-economic potential
The size of the socio-economic return:
Positive of varying degree in 3 of 5 cases Can increase in all casesImproved fisheries management is the key – biologically and economically
