Print this page | Email this page Visit of Joint ACP-EU Parliamentary Assembly delegation in pictures - 10.05.2008

Fisheries in Seychelles were the focus of a fact-finding mission recently by parliamentarians from Africa, the Pacific and Europe.

The aim was to assess the importance of fishing here in terms of jobs, generation of revenue and foreign exchange, and to see how funds could be allocated to its development.

During their visit, the delegation comprising members of the Joint African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) and European Union (EU) Parliamentary Assembly (JPA) had the chance to assess the importance of the fisheries industry to our small economy, discuss the various related statistics, see the different and important connections with the industry and the large number of people involved and who depend on fisheries for a livelihood.

The highlights of the group’s visit here are depicted in our selection of pictures that follow:
