16A Declaration of possession limit

(1)

The Minister may declare the maximum amount of a species of fish that a person may possess.

Example

The Minister declares a possession limit of 2 Murray Cod, within 100m of public waters. Claire goes fishing and catches 2 Murray Cod, taking them home and freezing them for later consumption. The next day, Claire catches another 2 Murray Cod. Because Claire is not in possession of more than 2 Murray Cod within 100m of the public waters, there is no breach of the possession limit.

(2)

A declaration is a disallowable instrument.
