Stakeholders in the maritime and fishing industry have given their consent to the ratification of two international protocols meant to regulate the operations of fishing vessels and working conditions of their crew members.
The protocols are the Cape Town Agreement (CTA) of 2012, designed by the International Maritime Organisation (IMO), and the C188 Work in Fishing Convention, 2007 of the International Labour Organisation (ILO).
While the CTA seeks to set out a mandatory safety requirement for fishing vessels, the ILO Convention on fishing intends to regulate working conditions of fishers in the industry.
“Although in merchant shipping there are a lot of regulations in the country on the safety and welfare of vessels and the people who work in them, the situation is not the same in the fishing industry, hence the need for the ratification of the two conventions,” the acting Director in charge o ....

Suddenly hopping with the jet set, by way of celebration the boisterous octet decided to double their wages from 30 to 60 quid a week. 
If there’s a more remarkable late 20th Century success story than this, I can’t think of it. Propelled by the worldwide smash hit single Tubthumping (“I get knocked down, but I get up again…” – see, you  ....
