Market Existing Measures/Legislations and Info-Record Record to be Transferred

Recommendations Legal aspects mostly to be covered by fisheries legislations because it is IUU fishing issues, the traceability system may already be required as part of national food safety system. Legislation may not be part of fishery law. Therefore this is unnecessary to have separated food safety and IUU traceability. If the country have e-system, it is easier to trace back and get additional labeling information if this is required by the importers or importing market (Ideally: electronic recording of the landing by competent authority in future)
