10 Minor amendments to plan
This section applies if—
a fisheries management plan is in force (the existing plan); and
the conservator considers that minor amendments to the existing plan are appropriate.
The conservator—
may prepare an amended fisheries management plan, incorporating the minor amendments; and
need not comply with section 7 (1) (a); and
may make the fisheries management plan, as amended.
Note A fisheries management plan approved by the conservator is a disallowable instrument (see s 7 (2)).
In this section:
minor amendment, of a fisheries management plan, means an amendment that will improve the effectiveness or technical efficiency of the plan without changing the substance of the plan.
