The Confederation of Namibian Fishing Associations (CNFA) fears job losses in the industry because of the newly introduced bycatch limits.

The Chairperson, Matti Amukwa, highlighted the concern at a recent event at Walvis Bay.

Cabinet has given the go-ahead to the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Water and Land Reform to implement measures aimed at reducing bycatch and protecting Namibia's marine resources.
