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 by species and fishery. This facilitates downloading as, intact, these documents are big and unwieldy.

For each fishery management proposal we have submitted to we present the available information in the following order.

1. The Ministry of Fisheries (MFish) management proposal as presented in the Initial Position Paper (IPP)
2. The Minister of Fisheries' "Preliminary View" letter.
3. Submissions to the IPP from option4 and others, as available.
4. The MFish Final Advise Paper (FAP) incorporating stakeholders submissions
5. The Ministers Final Decision for the species.
6. Articles and Letters relating to this fishery, as available
