109 Order to stop or delay escape of non-indigenous fisheries resources or aquaculture fish
If the chief executive is satisfied there is no practicable way to take and remove, or destroy, non-indigenous fisheries resources or aquaculture fish, the chief executive may order an inspector to take the action necessary to stop or delay the fisheries resources from escaping.
The chief executive may make the order even though other fisheries resources, plants or other property may be destroyed.
The inspector must take the action necessary to comply with the order.
Compensation is payable for fisheries resources, plants or property taken and removed, or destroyed, under the order only if the chief executive decides that compensation should be payable in the circumstances of the particular case.
