Required form of documentation for sale of fish
450 Required form of documentation for sale of fish
For the purposes of section 120AA(2)(a) of the Act the document must be in the form of—
a catch disposal record, if fish are sold at the place of landing by the holder of an access licence who is required to complete a catch disposal record before selling any fish taken under the licence to another person; or
a receipt that contains the details specified in subregulation (2), if—
abalone are sold; or
fish other than abalone are sold for the purpose of resale in circumstances where a catch disposal record is not required to be completed; or
a receipt that contains the details specified in subregulation (3), in any other circumstances where fish other than abalone are sold.
Examples
1 Subregulation (1)(a) would apply to the holder of an access licence such as a rock lobster fishery access licence who is required, under Subdivision 6 of Division 6 of Part 2, to complete a catch disposal record when selling fish.
2 Subregulation (1)(b)(i) would apply if any person sells abalone (including an access licence holder, aquaculture licence holder, fish receiver, wholesaler or retailer) to another person.
3 Subregulation (1)(b)(ii) would apply if the holder of an access licence such as an Ocean Fishery Access Licence who is not subject to Subdivision 6 of Division 6 of Part 2 (and is therefore not required to complete a catch disposal record) sells fish other than abalone to a wholesaler of fish.
