AFMA has published its 2017-18 total allowable catch (TAC) recommendations paper for the Southern and Eastern Scalefish and Shark fishery (SESSF). This paper outlines AFMA Management’s recommendations of TACs for species in the SESSF for the 2017-18 fishing year, commencing 1 May 2017.

The paper was sent to all SESSF concession holders and other stakeholders, and provided an opportunity to review AFMA Management’s TAC recommendations before they were considered by the South East Management Advisory Committee (SEMAC) at its TAC setting meeting in January 2017.

If you have any questions or comments, please raise them with the relevant member of SEMAC or AFMA staff Brigid Kerrigan (Commonwealth Trawl and Great Australian Bight Trawl Sectors) on 02 6225 5484, or Ryan Keightley (Gillnet, Hook and Trap Fisheries) on 02 6225 5397.
