    The Lake Victoria Fisheries Organization (LVFO) and FAO National Stakeholders’ Workshop on Fishing Effort and Capacity on Lake Victoria was held in Mukono, Republic of Uganda on 8 November 2006. The main objectives of the workshop were to share and include the national stakeholders’ perspectives and concerns that had been provided by national stakeholders at national workshops in the respective Partner States regarding the draft Lake Victoria Fisheries Organization (LVFO) Regional Plan of Action for the Management of Fishing Capacity on Lake Victoria and its Basin (RPOA-Capacity). Group discussion led to collective agreement to commit to the draft RPOA-Capacity and to request that the LVFO adopt the draft RPOA-Capacity and forward it to the Council of Ministers of the LVFO for endorsement. This document contains the report of the workshop, the reports of the Regional Task Force’s meetings immediately prior to and following the Regional Stakeholders’ Workshop and drafts of the RPOA-Capacity. This document and the actions adopted by the workshop participants serves as a basis for further work aimed at improving regional fisheries management of fishing capacity.
