Public Comment Sought

The Minister for Fisheries has the power to issue aquaculture leases under Section 97 of the Fish Resources Management Act 1994, although to date none have been issued. With the intention that the Minister will enter into such aquaculture leases, relevant management arrangements have been drafted under which lease applications would be assessed, and leases managed. To that end the following papers have been prepared which are released for comment:

  1. Fisheries Management Paper No 215. Draft Policy on the Granting, Renewal and Regulation of Aquaculture Leases in Western Australia. A Discussion Paper.
  2. Fisheries Management Paper No. 216. Proposed Fees and Charges for Section 97 Aquaculture Leases: A Discussion Paper.
  3. Draft Section 97 Aquaculture Lease Application Forms

If you require a copy of the documents, please contact Ms Liz Findlater on 9482 7333.

Public submissions close on these papers on Tuesday 27 June 2006 (one month from release) and should be sent to:
