Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

The Australian Fisheries Management Authority (AFMA) has cancelled (revoked) the management plan for the Great Australian Bight Trawl Fishery.

What this means:

The specific rules and regulations that governed trawling (a fishing method involving dragging nets) in the Great Australian Bight are no longer in force
Fishery operators in this area are no longer subject to the restrictions and requirements outlined in the 1993 plan
AFMA made this decision using its powers under the Fisheries Management Act 1991
The cancellation takes effect the day after this document is officially registered

Background: The original management plan was established in May 1993 to regulate fishing in this area. This instrument simply removes that regulatory framework entirely.
