[Issue+] Establishment of a disaster response department in the Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries, expansion of the organization of the Fisheries Resources Agency... Also, the formulation and promotion of mid- to long-term policies.

[Fisheries and Livestock Products Daily=Reporters Kim Dong-ho, Kim Jin-oh, and Park Se-jun] With the increase in disasters in the fisheries sector, such as high water temperatures, red tides, and jellyfish due to climate change, the importance of responding to fisheries disasters is growing. Currently, the National Institute of Fisheries Science is handling fisheries disasters, but there are institutional limitations, such as the fact that responding to fisheries disasters is not designated as a statutory duty of the institute in related laws, including the Basic Act on Disaster and Safety Management. In response, this newspaper, along with Representative Moon Dae-rim (Democratic Party, Jeju 1st District), Pukyong National University, held a policy discussion meeting on "Improvement Plans for Responding to Fisheries Disasters for Securing Fisheries Household Management in the Age of Climate Crisis" last 25th. The main contents of the discussion meeting held on that day are broadcast live.△일
