## ANSWER

## THE MINISTER OF FISHERIES, ANIMAL HUSBANDRY AND DAIRYING

## (SHRI PARSHOTTAM RUPALA)

(a) to (c) : The name of places in the Country where fishing harbours/landing centres are located is at Annexure-I. It is to state that the handling capacity of such structures will vary depending on the size and type of  vessels,  frequency  of  arrival,  available  work  force  and  machinery  etc.  The  Department  of  Fisheries, Ministry  of  Fisheries,  Animal  Husbandry  and  Dairying    has  been  implementing  a  flagship  scheme  namely Pradhan Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana (PMMSY) with a highest-ever investment of Rs. 20,050 crore in all States/Union Territories (UTs) including in the State of Tamil Nadu for development of fisheries with effect from financial year 2020-21. Development of fishing harbours and fish landing centres is one of the thrust areas under PMMSY and an investment of about Rs.3500 crore has been envisaged for this purpose. Under PMMSY, central financial assistance upto 60% of project cost for the States and upto 100% for the UTs is provided  for  the  development  of  fishing  harbours  and  fish  landing  centres.  Further  the  entire  cost  for modernization of fishing harbours exclusively owned by the Central Government and its entities are borne by the  Government  of  India.  PMMSY  also  envisages  suitable  linkages  and  convergence  with  the  Sagarmala Scheme of Ministry of Ports,  Shipping  and Waterways  (MoPSW) for development of fishing harbours/fish landing centres.

The Department of Fisheries (DoF), Ministry of Fisheries, Animal Husbandry and Dairying during 2021-22 has    accorded  approval  to    four  fishing  harbour  proposals  under  PMMSY  in  a  convergence  mode  of implementation by sharing the central financial liability equally between the PMMSY of DoF and Sagarmala of  MoPSW.  Details  of  the  same  are  placed  at  Annexure-II.  In  addition,  14  Fishing  Harbours  of  various States/UTs including Tamil Nadu have been approved for development/upgradation under the Fisheries and Aquaculture Infrastructure Development Fund (FIDF) in which interest subvention is provided by Government of  India  for  the  loans  to  be  taken  by  State  Governments  to  finance  the  projects.  Details  of  the  same  are provided at Annexure-III.

(d) to (e): A Concept Note relating to  establishment of Multipurpose Seaweed Park has been received from the State Government of Tamil Nadu, at an estimated cost of Rs.296.43 crores under the PMMSY to be established in  a  hub  and  spoke  model.  The  project  aims  to  enhance  the  production  of  seaweed  and  to  create  viable alternative  livelihood  options  for  the  coastal  communities  by  introducing  them  to  seaweed  cultivation. However, a detailed project report along with firmed up cost with necessary approvals is yet to be received.
