On 28 September 2026, the Labour Ministry met the Environmental Justice Foundation to discuss fishing-sector labour standards and a labour-status report for the EU’s IUU assessment process.
The discussion covered rights, welfare, practical constraints and cooperation with relevant agencies. The announcement describes policy discussions and coordination; it does not announce new employment rules.
