This report, "Fisheries 2027", published by Defra in Autumn 2007, aims to explain the changes in fisheries and fisheries management over the past thirty years and:
- what Defra is now trying to achieve;
- to set out the balance it will strike between economic, social and environmental priorities;
- to clarify, through nine vision statements, what Defra thinks is needed to deliver sustainability;
- to identify the roles and responsibilities of different stakeholders in achieving sustainability and
- to summarise the economic, social and environmental benefits and costs of delivering the vision.
