2:30Now PlayingOn Tuesday, Sep. 28, the Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries, Food Security and Rural Development, Hon. Alfred Prospere said, that the fisheries sector remains on his priority list.
Minister Prospere, a former Chief Forestry Officer, said fisheries plays an essential role in providing food and livelihood for thousands. He is currently exploring compensational and beneficial avenues for fishers.
“The fishing sector is very risky business. Sometimes fishers go out to sea, they are lost at sea, their boats sink due to bad weather conditions but there is very little to compensate in terms of loss of life. I am really concerned about some form of insurance for our fishers. There should also be some form of health insurance coverage for retired fishers, just like the NIC would do for regular workers”.
