You could also call this:

"Changes to some fishing laws in the Fisheries Act 1996"

Some parts of the Fisheries Act 1996 are changing. You can find the old versions of these parts in the Fisheries Act 1996. Parts of the law, like sections 208 to 211, are being removed.

The law is also changing what happens to things that are seized. If the owner of a thing is found guilty, the thing can be taken away from them, as stated in section 212 of the Fisheries Act 1996. Another part of the law, section 213(1), is being updated to include a reference to section 199A.

The law is also being updated to include a new part in section 220. This new part says that section 220 must follow some rules from the Search and Surveillance Act 2012, specifically sections 164 to 168.
