Economic Sectors Fisheries. Fisheries in Tanzania are governed by the Fisheries Act of 2003. This and other legislation relevant to the proposed TBCA is discussed in greater detail in section 3.1. The government institution responsible for the management of fisheries in Tanzania is the Fisheries Development Division (FDD) of the Ministry of Livestock and Fisheries Development (MLFD). Their role since government decentralisation has been one of overall policy-setting, developing overarching national fisheries management laws and regulations, leading development cooperation programmes etc. as well as fulfilling the very important role of supervision and guidance of District-level fisheries officers (DFsOs), who are now employed directly by their respective local government authorities. In an effort to strengthen co-management approaches in fisheries, the establishment and management of Beach Management Units (BMUs) is now provided for in Regulation 133 of the Fisheries Regulations, 2009, while Regulation 134 identifies the roles for BMUs.

A more recent development has been the legal ability of BMUs to aggregate into so-called Collaborative Fisheries Management Areas (CFMAs), although a similar model was rolled-out in Tanga Region in the late 1990s (Xxxxx et al. 2007). Of the 21 BMUs in Mkinga district (see Table 1.), 9 consider themselves part of a CFMA (Xxxxxxxx and Xxxxxxxxxx, 2013). BMUs in Mubeza District are replaced by Liaison Committees, with 18 of these structures within the TCMP area (Kalombo, pers. comm.). Fishing and associated activities are important sources of income for coastal people in Tanzania. The fishing industry provides employment opportunities and foreign exchang...
