Fisheries throughout Australia are too restrictive now and need to be left alone. We have the worlds largest fisheries in area , yet we import over 70% of our seafood. Let us continue to be able to buy healthy, tasty Australian seafood for evermore. Leave the fisheries alone

Catch share privatization is a job destroyer for every sector of the commercial fishing industry affecting communities and support businesses, while saving not one fish. The EDF scheme is destruction. Do not eliminate those that harm the eco systems the least. Do not grant the large multi national corporations the tools of small boat fishermen destruction.

We try to make an honest living and support our families as well as the local economy and this is what we all get, this is the world-wide treatment of the fisherman. Unless, I guess, if you are padding the pockets of the politicians. Then things may go your way.

The NSW Governments proposed reforms are extreme and will cause detrimental consequences to families and communities that rely on these commercial fishers and the money they spend in their towns. The proposed reforms will do very little to promote conservation of fish stocks but will destroy the livelihoods of many families, create exteme stress, anxiety, depression and possible suicides from fishers who have spent their entire lives in the industry, have little or no other skills and would not be able to adjust or re-establish themselves in other employment. These proposals will only benefit a few of the wealthier fishers and cause financial stress to many as they would have to invest heavily to remain in their essential industry and only the banks would benefit from this. These reforms stink of corruption that will only benefit a few and destroy many. I SAY NO TO THESE REFORMS!
