action_plan:

It should be noted that there is evidence of Lao migrants working in the fishing and seafood processing sectors, though in smaller numbers than for Cambodian and Myanmar migrants. In particular, the Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme has conducted research entitled “Precarious pathways: Migration patterns and service needs for migrant workers in the Lao People’s Democratic Republic”, which identified Lao migrants working in both target sectors. For the current phase, the Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme sees value in continuing the Lao programme, particularly given the existing commitments made to stakeholders and the emerging evidence that there are Lao migrants employed in the fishing/seafood processing sectors. However, the programme will consider all possibilities for maximizing value for money during a no cost extension or another programme phase should they be granted.

Lao PDR: Conduct an internal review of what impact the programme will be likely to have on the sector given the limited number of migrants who work in the seafood processing and fishing sectors. Consider what value for money impact this has the programme and whether some funds should be reallocated as a result.
