The establishment of a Fisheries and Agricultural Development Authority in the United Arab Emirates

The Government of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and its Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries is considering the establishment of a Fisheries Development Corporation in the UAE. The purpose of the Corporation would be to act as an executing agency for governmental assistance to fishermen and for Government’s involvement in commercial activities in the public sector, and in particular in fish marketing, hopefully as a precursor to cooperative activities. The present report attempts to analyse th e existing framework of policy, laws and institutions to evaluate the need for a new agency in light of the functions of the existing ones, and to investigate the type of institution required and the allocation of functions. The report then describes the suggested structure and functions of the new body proposed and looks at suggested ways in which it could best implement its functions from the point of view of marketing and promoting cooperatives.
