Need

In a recently completed study (2007/058 and R4041) into strategic funding options for the recreational fishing sector, options for the national peak body, Recfish Australia, appeared limited. In the face of decreased funding from the Australian Government (a three year funding agreement ended on 30 June 2008 with no commitment to continue), the association was advised to seek alternative funding.

An option of seeking funding from the fishing trade and boating industries is currently being investigated but there are several challenges that need to be addressed before funding can be secured.

There is a need for Recfish Australia to build trust with both industry and other recreational fishing organisations not currently part of the association. A clear business case and purpose for Recfish Australia that delivers benefits to recreational fishers and industry partners needs to be formulated and the details of any funding agreement need to be carefully considered.

What is clear is that there is an ongoing need for Recfish Australia to continue as a national peak body advocating on behalf of recreational fishers and engaging with Australian Government agencies and departments. Recfish Australia provides a valuable service and ensures that the needs and rights of recreational fishers are considered in discussions of issues such as marine protected area planning, biosecurity, research and development and in strategies to deal with the implications of climate and environmental change.

Objectives

1. Recfish Australia to host a preliminary, facilitated, meeting with AFTA, BIA, Sunfish Queensland and the Game Fishing Association of Australia to discuss the conditions of a funding agreement between industry and Recfish Australia and identify issues impacting the formation of a unified peak body.
2. Recfish Australia to host a facilitated, round table discussion of all current, past and potential members to discuss the funding proposal and business environment of Recfish Australia
3. Recfish Australia to review its constitution, business case and strategic plan.

Summary

Currently across Australia there are a number of formal, non-formal and ad hoc or loosely aligned industry groups representing specific sectoral interests within the recreational fishing industry.

While each group has a specific cause and unique constituency, unnecessary duplication, ineffective communication and poor lateral strategy on key policy issues affecting recreational fishing, occurs.

This project sought to identify pathways and structure that could facilitate more effective partnerships amongst peak bodies within the recreational fishing industry.

Need

To satisfy the constitution of the WRLC, a Western Rocklobster Fishery Industry Congress must be held every two years.

To alleviate the extreme degree of uncertainty around all issues facing the Western Rocklobster fishery i.e. sustainability of stock and fishermen, management regime, marketing and marine parks all need to be addressed in a public forum where informed discussion can occur.

To address and improve upon the lack of cohesion across all sectors of the Western Rocklobster fishery.

To provide a forum which will allow for Industry consultation to occur regarding the best management regime for the WRLF i.e. input versus output debate. This will assist the WRLC as the industry peak body representative to put forward an industry consensus to RLIAC which will then allow the Minister for Fisheries to make a decision which will be supported by the great majority of MFL holders in the WRLF.

Objectives

1. Increased levels of cohesion amongst all industry stakeholders and peak body representatives in the WRLF
2. Effective communication amongst all sectors of industry i.e. catching, processing, marketing, government
3. New direction sought for major issues such as management regime, marine parks and marketing of WRL

Summary

The Congress was held on Friday July 24 and consisted of 6 sessions. Expert speakers representing Research, Management and Industry for the Rocklobster gave a total of 11 presentations. The workshop was held on Saturday July 25 with the main focus on 2 subjects - Working through the Management options for 2009/10 and the Input vs Output debate.

The Congress and Workshop provided Industry, Research, Policy and Financial Institutions a forum to exchange ideas and challenges concerning all aspects of the Rocklobster commercial Fishery research and management.

This resulted in a greater appreciation of current issues and will lead to better collaboration and management for commercial Rocklobster fishing in Western Australia. One of the main issues at that stage were the debate between Input vs. Output. An industry vote has taken place since and the outcome was in favour of Output. The Minister has since decided to change the Fishery to a Quota Managed System.
