Abstract

These regulations, consisting of 52 sections and three Schedules, set out reporting requirements for permit holders and licensed fish receivers. They differ from the 2001 regulations mainly because they: replace the range of catch, effort, landing, and processing returns provided for by the 2001 regulations with a new set of event-based reports that permit holders must provide after a particular event happens, or an activity is started or finished; provide for event reports and licensed fish receiver returns to be provided electronically; provide for circulars issued by the Director-General of the Ministry for Primary Industries (the Director-General) to specify: additional information that must contained in event reports; the manner and form in which any kind of report must be provided, including the codes that must be used.
