SummaryResumen
This executive decree declares artisanal fishermen and their assistants accredited by INCOPESCA, affected by the 2005 closed season in Puntarenas and the Gulf of Nicoya, to be in a state of conjunctural poverty. It authorizes the Joint Social Welfare Institute (IMAS) to grant economic subsidies totaling ₡125,000 per beneficiary, disbursed in two installments, conditioned on the performance of community work supervised by INCOPESCA. The measure is based on Law 8436 (Fisheries and Aquaculture Law), which empowers the Executive Branch to allocate funds for socioeconomic assistance programs during closed seasons, and on the inability of fishermen to earn income during that period. Accreditation requirements, control mechanisms, and immediate revocation of the benefit in case of non-compliance are established. The decree aims to mitigate the economic impact of the temporary fishing ban on a vulnerable population solely dependent on this activity.Este decreto ejecutivo declara en situación de pobreza coyuntural a los pescadores artesanales y sus ayudantes acreditados por INCOPESCA, afectados por la veda establecida para el año 2005 en Puntarenas y el Golfo de Nicoya. Autoriza al Instituto Mixto de Ayuda Social (IMAS) a otorgar subsidios económicos por un total de ¢125,000 por beneficiario, distribuidos en dos tractos, condicionados a la realización de trabajo comunal supervisado por INCOPESCA. La medida se fundamenta en la Ley 8436 (Ley de Pesca y Acuicultura), que faculta al Poder Ejecutivo a destinar fondos para programas de asistencia socioeconómica en períodos de veda, y en la imposibilidad de los pescadores de generar ingresos durante ese lapso. Se establecen requisitos de acreditación, mecanismos de control y revocatoria del beneficio en caso de incumplimiento. El decreto busca mitigar los efectos económicos de la prohibición temporal de pesca sobre una población vulnerable que depende exclusivamente de dicha actividad.

Considering:
1860 of April 21, 1955, and its amendments, it is the function of said Ministry to ensure that national policy in the field of social welfare has adequate regulation guaranteeing effective assistance to Costa Ricans, their families, and the community.
8436, published in the Official Gazette La Gaceta No. 78 of April 25, 2005, it is the responsibility of the Costa Rican Institute of Fisheries and Aquaculture (INCOPESCA) to protect and conserve hydrobiological resources, in order to guarantee living marine resources for future generations, promoting a sustainable exploitation of resources through the establishment of closed season periods and areas, for which agreement No. AJDIP / 274-2005, published in the Official Gazette La Gaceta of May 26, 2005, is issued.
4760 of May 4, 1971, establishes in its article 2 the purpose of solving the problem of extreme poverty in the country, and in its article 4, subsection e), establishes among its purposes "to attend to the needs of social groups or persons who must be provided with means of subsistence when they lack them."
102 of May 29, 2000, defines the concept of poverty as: "A complex phenomenon or situation of a temporary or structural nature, multifaceted and heterogeneous, which affects people and is characterized by their precarious housing and sanitary conditions, low educational levels, unstable insertion in the productive system, conditions of social risk, with little or no incorporation into mechanisms of social participation, insufficient resources to satisfy basic needs (nutritional, health, education, and housing), and in some cases absence or insufficiency of skills, aptitudes, tools, and opportunities to generate and accumulate income."
8436 provides: "...The Executive Branch may authorize the allocation of funds from the National Budget in favor of INCOPESCA for conducting studies on closed seasons, and in favor of the Joint Institute of Social Aid (Instituto Mixto de Ayuda Social, IMAS), for the purpose of developing socioeconomic assistance programs specially designed for this purpose, in favor of fishers who are affected during closed season periods, provided it is proven that they have no other sources of income and are in a condition of poverty. These programs will necessarily involve community work services by the beneficiaries, in accordance with the corresponding regulation or for conducting studies on the matter." THEY DECREE:
JDIP-274-2005 of the INCOPESCA Board of Directors, and who lack other complementary income, is hereby declared to be in a situation of temporary poverty (pobreza coyuntural). Consequently, the Joint Institute of Social Aid (Instituto Mixto de Ayuda Social) is authorized to grant economic benefits in the form of subsidies to these persons, in compliance with the conditions established in this decree.
IMAS shall attend to these persons based on a duly reasoned resolution approved by the Regional Manager determining compliance with the requirements established in this decree, in conformity with the refined list that INCOPESCA must present to it, which shall contain the following requirements:
IMAS professionals shall be empowered to request from potential beneficiaries the requirements established in article 2 of this decree and shall not require that they be registered in the Information System of the Target Population (SIPO). To make effective the delivery of the economic amount corresponding to the second closed season period, IMAS may request INCOPESCA and/or the beneficiaries to verify and update the information provided based on this decree.
In these cases, the immediate revocation of the authorized benefit shall proceed, and concomitantly, the participation of these beneficiaries in future benefits they might receive from IMAS on this account shall be affected.
