Fishing Permit office open over weekends again
The Swakopmund office of the Ministry of Fisheries and Marine Resources issuing recreational fishing permits will be open on weekends. The office was closed over weekends for several weeks and led to big frustrations.
This re-opening over weekends was confirmed to namib times by De Wet Siluka, the ministry’s Public Relations Officer.
According to Siluka, the permit office was closed over the past few weekends due to issues regarding payment of overtime to staff. “The issue has been resolved and thus the office will be open from 8:00 to 13:00 during weekends”, Siluka said. He added that the Ministry is considering to extend the weekend operation hours during the upcoming holiday season. Yesterday, a notice was attached at the permit office indicating that it will be open again on weekends.
