Scottish Government awarded a contract to Anderson Solutions (Consulting) Ltd for research to inform and expand the evidence base supporting the Scottish Government’s Future of Fisheries Management programme.

The project will build on existing data to establish a baseline of the Nephrops industry in Scotland and develop an analytical framework or model to test optimal industry configurations under various policy objectives.

The research is structured in two stages: first, to ascertain whether a deviation from optimal exists within the Nephrops fishery in Scotland’s waters; and second, if appropriate, to identify and measure the distribution of costs and benefits of altering the allocation of Nephrops fishing grounds.

The contract value is £78,750.
