Illustration for Fisheries Act 1996

You need to know how taiapure-local fisheries are managed. The Minister chooses a committee to manage each fishery. The Minister talks to the Minister of Maori Affairs before making this choice. The committee can be a group that already exists. You are part of a community that needs to know the committee is chosen based on nominations. These nominations come from people who seem to represent the local Maori community. The committee serves until the Minister decides otherwise. The Minister has the final say in who is on the committee and for how long they serve. You can find more information about this by looking at the related legislation. This helps you understand how the committee is managed.
