Description
This report provides a literature review of methods used for allocating access to resources of fish stocks between commercial and recreational fishers, in Australia and around the world. ABARES examined how all fishery jurisdictions in Australia approach the issue of resource allocation between commercial and recreational fishers and how this differs between states and the Commonwealth. Management arrangements in the United States, Canada, New Zealand and Japan were also examined. The main finding of the literature review is that in Australia, the United States, Canada, New Zealand and Japan, resource allocation decisions are made on a case-by-case basis and involve advisory panels of experts and extensive consultations with industry representatives. The decision-making process in Australia and overseas is typically based on a range of common principles and criteria to make initial allocations, and when required, to make adjustments to these allocations.
