Fisheries Act 1996

Miscellaneous provisions - Provisions relating to notices

307: Ornamental fish

You could also call this:

"What are ornamental fish in New Zealand?"

Illustration for Fisheries Act 1996

The chief executive can decide which species of fish, aquatic life, or seaweed are ornamental fish. You can find out which ones are ornamental fish by looking at a notice they publish. A notice like this is called secondary legislation, and you can learn more about what that means by looking at Part 3 of the Legislation Act 2019.
