Readers may be aware that stocking of trout in the Snowy-Monaro has been impacted recently. This has come from the NSW DPI Fisheries’ response to a federal decision to declare the Roundsnouted Galaxia as an endangered species.
MAS was not included in the Federal decision making and has written to the Federal Minister expressing concerns. Her response has been received and it raised further questions.
It is clear this matter, and similar ones raised with the NSW Minister Moriaty are not resolved.
NSWCFA are also entering into this debate.
Rather than publishing all this correspondence here, you can read it on the relevant websites. Note that letters to Ministers etc are embargoed for a time to allow them to respond.
