Effective monitoring and enforcement of marine and fishing laws, this role was vital to ensure the protection Scotland's valuable marine areas and fisheries. My main duties within this role were ensuring compliance or detecting breaches of fisheries regulations by monitoring and inspection at sea and in ports, and then reporting as appropriate to the prosecuting authorities, and by providing intelligence on fishing activity in the sea areas around Scotland.
