Illustration for Fisheries Act 1996

The Annual Catch Entitlement Register is a record of fishing information. You can find details about annual catch entitlements in this register. It includes information about who holds the entitlements. The register shows who has annual catch entitlements and how much they have. It also shows when entitlements are transferred from one person to another. You can see the names of the people involved in the transfer and the amount transferred. The register has information about caveats, which are like warnings on someone's entitlement. It shows who put the caveat on, when it was put on, and how much entitlement it affects. You can also see when the caveat will end and when it is withdrawn. The register includes information about forfeited entitlements, which means someone loses their entitlement. It shows when the entitlement was transferred to the Crown and how much was transferred. You can also see reported catch information and other details required by regulations. The register has the last known address of the entitlement owner and people with a registered interest. It also includes corrections made to the register and when they were made.
