4 Objective 1—Efficiency and cost‑effectiveness
4.1 In managing the SBT Fishery under this Plan, AFMA will pursue the objective of implementing efficient and cost‑effective fisheries management on behalf of the Commonwealth. 4.2 The measures by which this objective is to be attained include that AFMA: (a) undertake an annual evaluation of the services required to manage the SBT Fishery (including, for example, management, enforcement, compliance, register maintenance, data collection, research and consultation services); and (b) as necessary, revise the range, extent and cost of those services. 4.3 The performance criteria against which the measures taken will be assessed include the following: (a) that AFMA prepares a written report each year giving details of the evaluation and revision of the range and cost of services provided by AFMA in that year, and makes the report publicly available; (b) that AFMA’s management of the SBT Fishery meets best practice in terms of cost‑effectiveness; (c) that AFMA’s management of the SBT Fishery is acknowledged by government and key stakeholders to be pursuing a cost‑effective service.
