Plain English Summary
9/10 complexity
This Direction (SESSF (Closures) Direction No. 2 2010) sets detailed area-based and gear-specific fishing prohibitions for the Southern and Eastern Scalefish and Shark Fishery. It applies to all concession holders and their agents, runs from 30 June 2010 until 30 April 2013, and replaces the earlier 2009 closures. Mechanically, it prohibits particular fishing methods (gillnets, hooks, trawl, automatic baiting, etc.) inside numerous named zones defined by precise coordinates.
Zoe can write the in-depth analysis on top of the summary above: how it works, who it affects and what each part actually does.
