Thread: Fishing Licence Yes Or No

  1. #16

    Re: Fishing Licence Yes Or No

    Maybe the poll should be ... 'If a fishing licence is introduced, do you trust the government to use the money in the right direction (ie boat ramps, fishing facilities, etc)?'

    My answer ... No!

    Dayoo, I hear you. Tip of the iceberg.

    Cheers

    Yes, if we can gaurantee the money will stay in independant non-government hands.

    Unfortunately we can't so it's NO.

    Lets outline the "real" pro's & cons of a "proposed" general rec license along the lines of :-

    PRO's

    * PPV levy would be removed
    * The current SIP's program would be removed as it currently sits - taking an average of the last three years monies raised being transferred across to the freshwater trust account to kick off with.
    * A number ( ? ) of Recreational angling only area's be identified - where ALL commercial effort could be brought out.No further commercial fishing can take place in these areas again.
    * ALL the money raised will go into two TRUST ACCOUNTS - one for freshwater & one for saltwater
    * TOTAL administration fee to run the program will be capped at 10% of total revenue raised & allocated to DPI&F
    * ALL venue raised under via "the proposed" general rec fee/license would be managed by expenditure committee's consisting of key user groups with representatives from across the state.
    * These trust expenditure committees WILL DECIDE where the money will be best spent & will direct DPI&F on how we would like to see our fisheries managed & will appoint research priorities to be conducted by "independent" biologists.
    * Taking ownership of our recreational fisheries

    Con's -

    * Receiving "even- balanced" input on how the money will be best spent ?
    * Selection & the process for selecting the recreational angling only area's
    * Costing the real value of commercial effort to be brought out of teh rec fishing only areas.
    * re-location of commercial effort from the rec fishing only areas
    * Managing compliance

    Thank heavens for this. The poll we actually wanted, not like the last bloody fiasco which was a bit like the republican referendum. Didn't want a rec fishing license but hard to vote "happy with the way government is managing the fishery".

    Already made my position clear. NO
