A petition to address "loopholes" in the South Australian Government's Marine Scalefish Fishery reforms has been launched by stakeholders who believe the changes will render the majority of local commercial fishers unviable.
"Unless loopholes are addressed, over two-thirds of our local commercial fishers will be unable to remain in business and South Australia risks losing its local fishing industry forever," the MFA said. The reforms aim to manage four priority species: snapper, southern garfish, southern calamari and King George whiting, under what the Government calls Individual Transferable Quotas — except on the West Coast whereMFA executive officer Gary Morgan said it was working with the Government to address "ongoing issues, particularly around keeping the fishery local so that it continues to contribute to local communities and economies".
He said 88 fishers had so far applied to surrender their licence under the Government's $24.5 million reform package.
Australian Politicians no longer serve the Australian People in their best interests ! They all now serve a foreign master and Multi-National Corporations instead ! Australian Constitution 1901 must be followed and Treasonous Politicians held to account for their actions.
