Been thinking about this for awhile now. There a good number of groups around and I personally think the time has come to where they all need to sit at the table. There are some really clever people involved with brilliant ideas.They all want what we all want 'ABUNDANCE" So why not get together and take the best ideas and work together on them?select those involved who they think would be most beneficial to succeed. Present a case as a collective to MPI and then return to the table with what MPI suggest and digest and work their ideas in with MPI and represent again.Must at stage get a formidable result? Mpi surely do not want constant dumping reports and we want a sustainable inshore fisheries. Would Mpi be more inclined to listen to body of experts(for a better word)than trying to deal with individual groups? Not a lot of money would be involved just time(Which I think we are running out of)to a foreseeable future not a good example but, Nathan guy "Judge" Recreational groups "prosecutors Mpi Staff "defense" recreational/commercial "jury" with so many defense/prosecutors,we the jury would never reach an agreement under they way its being run now. Am I barking up the wrong tree?thoughts!

Paul until people can get over, around, past the hatred towards commercial this will never happen. Besides hasn't something like this been mooted before even to the point of having an informal gathering but again difference of opinion & ideology made it impossible. A lot don't or wont see that New Zealand's fishery is a shared one and only believe its theirs and nobody else's. |

Reading that it sounds awfully something your mate Pugsy  has written. I will need to read this a couple of times to understand what on hell they're going on about but I take anything that is written in this paper with a pinch of salt. If Carter was that concerned about the environment he should stop killing trees to print this crap. |
