The North Western Waters Advisory Council (NWWAC) has appointed our colleague Alexandra Philippe (EBCD) as its new Chair during the Executive Committee (ExCom) meeting in Paris on 12 March. She becomes the first Chair from the Other Interest Group (OIG). In addition to Alexandra’s appointment, the ExCom has elected three Vice Chairs: Irene Prieto (OPPF4), Jean-Marie Robert (Les Pêcheurs de Bretagne PO), and John Lynch (Irish South & East Fish Producers Organisation).
Their collective expertise will support the NWWAC’s mission of delivering balanced and informed policy recommendations. The NWWAC also expressed gratitude to Emiel Brouckaert (Rederscentrale) for his leadership as outgoing Chair, recognising his contributions to strengthening the Council’s advisory role (more).
