Inshore Fin Fish Have your say

East Coast Inshore Fin Fish Fishery
Summary of proposed management changes

Are you a recreational fisher? Are you a commercial fisher? Are you   involved in an organisation or industry that relies on fisheries, or  do you simply enjoy locally caught seafood such as bream, whiting  or flathead?

The Department of Primary Industry and Fisheries Queensland, (DPI&F) has reviewed the East Coast Inshore Fin Fish Fishery, which
covers many of the important inshore species. A number of changes   are proposed to the management of the fishery including new
and amended bag and size limits, new netting arrangements and  improvements to shark management.
We want to hear what you think about the proposed changes.  Have your say before 17 March 2008.

This document summarises the proposed changes to management of the fishery. More detail about  the proposals is available in the Regulatory Impact Statement and draft Public Benefit Test for the East Coast Inshore Fin Fish Fishery (RIS).
