project_35540 - UK Seafood Fund - Science & Innovation Pillar - FISP (Procurement) Round 2

The purpose of FISP Part B is to procure research in order to collect data that improves the knowledge of UK fisheries and aquaculture and their interaction with the marine environment and other marine species to support sustainable fisheries management. Tenderers must demonstrate how research supports at least one of the Fisheries Act Objectives identified in the technical envelope in Section 3 of this ITT. This can include data collection to support the development of Fisheries Management Plans and research to support the development of fisheries management measures which contribute towards the Precautionary, Sustainability, Ecosystem, Bycatch, and Climate Change objectives. The data to be collected and subsequent analysis will be proposed by the UK fishing/seafood industry in collaboration with an appropriate research organisation.
