Team if you care about our fishery, about the country’s long term best interests and just plain doing the right thing, please get a message to your MP now.
It's time to get in touch with your local MPs.
The Fisheries Amendment Bill is being debated THIS WEEK, and if you’ve been following along, you’ll know these aren't minor tweaks.
It’s a major shift in how our fisheries are managed, who gets visibility, and who benefits from what is supposed to be a public resource - spoiler alert, it’s not everyday Kiwis.
One of the more concerning aspects is the move to allow the removal of size limits for species like snapper and trevally. That means fish could be taken before they’ve had a chance to reproduce, placing more pressure on fish stocks and ultimately leading to fewer fish in our waters.
Here’s what this Bill points to:
Less transparency
More discarded fish
Fewer fish for Kiwis
We’ve already seen what happens when a bit of light gets shone on the system. Onboard cameras have exposed underreporting of dolphins, seabirds, and excess catch, giving the public a rare and valuable look at what’s actually happening at sea.
Now the Government wants to make that footage harder to access.
At a time when we should be improving monitoring, strengthening data, and increasing accountability, this Bill heads in the opposite direction. It hands more control to the Minister and pulls the public further away from decisions about a shared resource.
Right now, the most important thing we can be doing as Kiwis is making it clear to our MPs that this isn’t acceptable.
Feel free to email them now, or if you need a hand, we’ve put together a pretty easy to use form where you can select from a few messages and fire them off to the MPs of your choice: https://legasea.co.nz/kill-the-bill-write-to-your-local-mp/
In the meantime, stay across what’s happening. Share this with people who care about the future of our fisheries. And when that tool lands, use it.
This is one of those moments where public pressure still counts. Let’s not sit this one out.
