The bill would officially declare the Verde Island Passage a protected seascape, set up a multi‑sector board and a fisheries monitoring center, zone the area into strict‑protection and multiple‑use parts, and fund its management through a dedicated fund. It also exempts small‑scale fishers from licensing and bans large‑scale mining, quarrying, and other destructive activities.
