The Standing Fish Price Setting Panel has many
functions, such as facilitating collective bargaining
and establishing parameters for negotiation. The Panel
facilitates access by parties to collective bargaining
information relating to the sale of fish, as well as
acting as an arbitration panel for the parties in
setting fish prices. It may also set fish prices if the
parties to negotiation are unable to agree on price.
The Panel focuses on matters related to the price and
conditions of sale of fish.
The need for a Panel was identified in the
2005 Cashin
Report and the legislative framework was provided
upon amendments to the
Fishing Industry Collective Bargaining Act that
passed in the House of Assembly on February 23, 2006.
