Fisheries Management
2004
Tarakihi fish stocks were
considered as suitable for an Adaptive Management Programme (AMP)
in 2002. At that time option4 objected to the implementation of
AMPs in inshore shared fisheries. Strong submissions were made regarding
the Tarakihi 1 fishery and the Minister at the time, Pete Hodgson,
supported our views.
Now, in 2004, we have
been presented with more proposals for AMPs in Tarakihi 2 (TAR2)
and Tarakihi 3 (TAR3). We have attempted to follow the process and
present the information as it becomes available. option4 did not
submit to the 2004 AMP proposals as our resources were focussed
elsewhere - on the kahawai issue.
AMPs
The clear intent of Adaptive
Management Programmes is to fish down the stock fast enough to allow
the decline in commercial trawl CPUE to be measured within a certain
time period. We fail to see how AMPs address management issues and
"allow for" non-commercial fishing interests in our precious
inshore shared fisheries. Read more about AMPs
