Southern Bluefin Tuna Fishery

Determinations

Under the Southern Bluefin Tuna Management Plan 1995 (the Plan) AFMA must calculate the interim live weight value and the actual live weight value of each Statutory Fishing Right. These values are worked out on the basis of Australia's national catch allocation or provisional national catch allocation, which are determined in accordance with the Plan. This is the current Southern Bluefin Total Allowable Catch determination.

These calculations or determinations are specified by instrument and in some cases are required to be printed in a public notice in a newspaper.
