Funded Activity Summary

ASIC needs to instigate a proper process to collate a national Commercial Fishing Industry response to the NMSC proposals to change the USL Code and input into the new National Marine Safety Strategy.

Commercial Fishing Industry representatives from each State/Territory need to conduct a series of workshops to formulate a national response to the above.

Timelines for submissions to NMSC need to be reconsidered to allow industry to meet, consider and form a national Commercial Fishing Industry response to the changes and implications listed in the preceeding Background paragraph. This matter has been taken up with NMSC.

Objectives:
1. Conduct at least two rounds of States/Territory workshops, coordinated and managed by an ASIC appointed secretariat ( WAFIC accepts this role) to formulate State/Territory positions in relation to the USL Code amendments and National Marine Safety Strategy.
2. Develop a report that summarises the views and recommends a national approach to USL Code issues from the Commercial Fishing Industry.
3. Present ASIC's recommendations/findings to NMSC
