REQUEST FOR A FURTHER TEMPORARY CLOSURE OF MAUNGANUI BAY TO FISHING (EXCEPT KINA)
Pursuant to section 186A of the Fisheries Act 1996, Fisheries New Zealand has received a request from Te Kupenga o Ngati Kuta and Patukeha ki Te Rawhiti for a further 2-year temporary closure of Maunganui Bay, Bay of Islands, to the take of all fisheries resources, except kina. The current temporary closure is due to expire on 13 October 2018
Te Kupenga o Ngati Kuta and Patukeha ki Te Rawhiti consider that a further 2-year closure will provide continued statutory support for a traditional RĀHUI (traditional closure) placed over the bay in 2009, and continue to improve the quality and quantity of fauna and flora in the bay.
HAVE YOUR SAY – MAKE A SUBMISSION
Written submissions in response to this request are invited from persons who have an interest in the species concerned or in the effects of fishing in the area concerned.
The closing date for submissions is Monday 11 June 2018.
