AS for fishery resources, Jeffrey said the State has achieved an SSL of 106 per cent.
“In the first six months of 2023, the estimated export fisheries value was 21,313.94 metric tonnes , equivalent to RM234.48 million.
Jeffrey said there has been notable progress since Sabah gained the authority from Federal to issue deep-sea fishing licenses. “As a result, it has streamlined the application process and the issuance of permits and deep-sea licenses.” “The authorisation and approval of foreign workers are under the jurisdiction of the Department of Immigration Sabah and the Sabah Labour Department.”
He said in instances where the marine police make arrests, these cases are transferred to DOFS for further investigation and prosecution. He also said that when MMEA apprehends vessels, the DOFS assists in inspecting and verifying the fishing equipment aboard the seized boat.
