The principal functions of the agency are set out under Section 7(1) of the Act and these are the protection, management, and conservation of the inland fisheries resource. The general functions of the agency are;

  • (a) To promote, support, facilitate, and advise the Minister on the conservation, protection, management, marketing, development and improvement of inland fisheries, including sea angling.
  • (b) Develop and advise the Minister on policy and national strategies relating to inland fisheries including sea angling and,
