Uganda Forms New Landing Site Committees, Restructures Fisheries Protection Unit

President Museveni has ordered the creation of new landing site committees in Uganda, composed of local fishermen and investors, replacing the previous Fisheries Protection Unit and all existing committees.

The move, implemented through the Chief of Defence Forces, Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba, responds to ongoing controversies and complaints from fishing communities.

The Fisheries Protection Unit has been restructured and renamed the 155 Marines Battalion, now operating under the Uganda People's Defence Force Marines Brigade.
