New fishing measures to support the Threat Management Plan for Hector’s and Māui dolphins are now in place. The new measures prohibit the use of recreational and commercial set nets in a variety of areas across the country while extending the trawl prohibition within the central Māui dolphin habitat zone. Drift netting is also now prohibited in all New Zealand waters. Make sure you are up to date. To learn more about the changes, head to our website. | Ministry for Primary Industries
