ROCK LOBSTER FISHERY

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (14:29): As a supplementary question, can the minister advise whether SARDI has determined which methodology it will use and, if not, when that will be?

The Hon. G.E. GAGO (Minister for Agriculture, Food and Fisheries, Minister for Forests, Minister for Regional Development, Minister for the Status of Women, Minister for State/Local Government Relations) (14:29): SARDI has used a range of modelling. That is publicly available. That has been openly available in discussions and dialogue with the industry, so all of that is out there already. The industry is well aware. In relation to the figures, as I said, SARDI is happy to consider specific figures, but the industry has to provide us with evidence of that and, as I said, most of that work has been done and that information is available by our officers.
