The FishCA is a pioneering monitoring tool created by the DILG to supervise coastal Local Government Units’ (LGUs) compliance with the Philippine Fisheries Code (R.A. 8550), as amended by RA 10654. It aims to reinforce their responsibilities under the law, and to consolidate compliance data of LGUs in ensuring the sustainable and effective management of municipal waters.
