7G Management plan not to be made until completion of environmental assessment
(1) Until a determination is made under Schedule 1AA with respect to a designated fishing activity, the first management plan for the fishery concerned cannot be made.
(2) If the management plan for a share management fishery is not made within the time required by section 42(3), the Minister is not required to recommend that the description of the fishery be omitted from Schedule 1 if the Minister is satisfied, after having consulted with any relevant advisory group or advisory council, that the fishery should be retained as a share management fishery despite the delay in making the plan.
