Fisheries Management Act 1994

The Secretary must, before removing or varying any condition or restriction attached to a licence—

cause to be placed in a newspaper circulating throughout the State a notice—

outlining the nature of the proposed variation to the licence, and

specifying the address of the place at which copies of any species impact statement relating to the licence may be inspected or purchased, and

inviting written submissions within a period of not less than 30 days after the date of the notice, and

take into account the matters required by this Division to be taken into account by the Secretary when considering whether to grant or refuse to grant a licence.

This section does not apply if the proposed variation to the licence constitutes a minor amendment only of that licence.
