Broadbill Swordfish
Broadbill
swordfish are being introduced into the Quota Management System
(QMS) on 1 October 2004. The Ministry of Fisheries has issued their
management proposal in a document, the Initial Position Paper (IPP).
The submission deadline was 27 February 2004.
Background
Broadbill swordfish are one of 19 species gazetted for inclusion
in the QMS by October. Other species of importance to recreational
and Maori customary fishers are green-lipped mussels, mako shark,
parore, porae, red snapper, yellowfin tuna and kahawai. For full
details on all species read the IPP cover letter and full IPP documents
on the Fisheries Management page.
Documents
To achieve
a good level of understanding of complex fisheries management scenarios
we believe it is important to read the available data in good order.
The various documents
have been broken up and reorganised, this facilitates downloading
as, intact, these documents are big and unwieldy.
For this fishery management
proposal we present the available information:
- Updates relating to this species.
- The Ministry of Fisheries (MFish) management proposal as presented
in the Initial Position Paper (IPP)
- Submissions to the IPP, as available.
- The MFish Final Advise Paper (FAP) incorporating stakeholders
submissions
- The Ministers Final Decision for the species.
- Articles and Letters relating to this fishery, as available
