Conclusion

This "Sustainable Policy of the Scottish Pelagic Industry" lays out the current views of the whole industry and provides a statement of intent outlining a general plan of conduct. The Scottish pelagic industry is committed to ensuring this policy is followed during all direct and indirect operations concerning the fishing, processing and business activities of all stakeholders to Scottish pelagic resources.

The Scottish pelagic industry will make this policy fully available and transparent to all parties within industry and to society in general. Furthermore, it will welcome feedback and critical examination of the policy and will amend the policy on receipt of relevant authoritative comment; which it finds appropriate to strengthen and improve its content and implementation. The Scottish pelagic industry will undertake to review this policy at regular intervals, and any amendments arising from the review will be published accordingly.
