Sam Woolford: LegaSea CEO on the Government's U-turn on changing commercial fishing size limits, the fisheries bill

A recreational fishing advocate says the Government's back-track on controversial fishing rule changes is too little, too late.  The Government's U-turned on plans to ease minimum size limits for commercial fishing companies.  Organisations like LegaSea were concerned the policy would significantly affect fish populations.  LegaSea Chief Executive Sam Woolford says scrapping this one aspect of the law change, and not other aspects, isn't good enough.  He told Mike Hosking there’s some nefarious things still in the legislation, such as the intention to remove judicial review or make it hard for the public to get involved in consultation, and the legalisation of dumping and discarding fish at sea.   LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
