So-called fisheries reform from a trawl fishery perspective: A discussion with Elaine Lewthwaite

Elaine Lewthwaite, a partner in a Queensland Trawl business provides some valuable insights into how the soc-called reform process has missed the mark. Human resources being a key lost opportunity.

 

Her observation that industry has been marginalized at the cost of the people that work to provide seafood to Queenslanders, Australians and international visitors. Communication and trust are lacking and a significant rebuilding of relationships need to occur – fear and anxiety are no way to manage commercial fisheries.
