Abstract
The fisheries sub-sector is one that contributes greatly to the economies of Ghana and the West African subregion. However, illegal and environmentally harmful fishing methods, which are rife in this region, largely affect the potential of this sub-sector to rake in more resources. The regulatory institutions in Ghana have responded by establishing an out-of-court settlement committee to hear and settle matters relating to illegal and environmentally harmful practices in fishing. There are, however, many potential constitutional and legal challenges to the creation and functioning of the committee. This article identifies these and proposes ways of resolving them to streamline its operations and ensure that it achieves the broader aim of generating twenty (20) percent of national revenue from the sub-sector.
