AFMA recently released an updated version of Fisheries Management Paper No 1 – Management Advisory Committees (FMP 1).
FMP 1 describes the main function of MACs and how they go about providing advice to AFMA on the preparation of management arrangements, the operation of the relevant fishery and reporting to AFMA on scientific, economic and other information on the status of fish stocks, substocks, species (target and non-target species) and the impact of fishing on the marine environment.
You can find a copy of the updated paper on the Operation of management advisory committees page.
