A social license to operate indicates the level of approval from the community that an industry has to operate. Seafish facilitated a workshop to explain the concept, how it works and the reasons for attaining and building high quality stakeholder relationships in this way. These notes are a summary of the workshop, the exercises undertaken and the comments made. Please also look at the presentation given at the workshop and the handouts which can all be found on the Seafish website http://www.seafish.org/responsible-sourcing/discussion-forums/the-common-language-group/social-license-to-operate.

The report presents the outcome of a feasibility study, supported by Seafsh, for developing an aquaculture and fsheries research and development centre at a laboratory facility in Brixham. (formerly AstraZeneca’s, but transferred to Plymouth University two years ago). The proposed concept was a full-service operation that could support the UK seafood industry - including fsheries and aquaculture supply chains - with market-led research, development and analytics capabilities.
