Notice

1. Title and commencement—(1) This notice may be cited as the Fisheries (Bycatch Trade-Off) Notice (No. 4) 1998.

(2) This notice shall come into effect the day after the date of its notification in the Gazette, and shall expire on the 15th day of January 1999.

(c) Methods are specified by way of method codes, being Method Codes defined in the Second Schedule of the Fisheries (Reporting) Regulations 1990†.

3. Offering a lease of quota in lieu of paying deemed value—(1) Subject to this clause, as from the date this notice comes into effect, any commercial fisherman who but for section 28ZC of the Fisheries Act 1983, could be required under section 28ZD of that Act to pay the deemed value of any fish that is specified as a bycatch species in this notice, may, not later than 15 days after the end of the month in which the fish were taken, by notice in writing, offer the Chief Executive of the Ministry of Fisheries a lease or sub-lease of the right to take fish, under any quota held or leased by that commercial fisherman that are specified in the Schedule to this notice as a target species in relation to that bycatch species.

(2) The ratios specified in the Schedule to this notice, are the ratios at which a lease or sublease of quota of the target species may be accepted in relation to the amount of the bycatch species for which the offer of quota is made, (e.g. if a fisher could be required to pay deemed value for 1 tonne of Ele 3 and wishes to offer a lease of Sch 3 then the amount that can be offered is 1 tonne × 1.10 = 1.10 tonnes of Sch 3).

(3) The bycatch species must have been taken while fishing for the target species using the method or any of the methods specified in the Schedule, (e.g. in the case of the above example, the Ele 3 bycatch must have been taken using the method of setnetting).
