Abstract
  • The open access nature of fisheries resources had caused application of excessive fishing effort to most World fisheries. Proper management of fisheries resources is vital for sustainability and its safe future utilisation. Most attempts to salvage fisheries resources had so far succeeded but have also created one or more problems. This led to some writers suggesting that the fishery management itself should not be perfect as the World in which it operates is itself imperfect. The reflection on the historical background and the development of the Namibian fisheries management is presented. The effectiveness of the management system is examined by assessing the achievements attained. Problems of ITQ management system are reviewed with particular reference to concentration. Furthermore, the justification for not using pure ITQ in the Namibian context is made. The results prove that concentration, which in part is one of the main problems of ITQ, is non-existent in the Namibian fishery.
