1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,080 Speaker 1: So the fisheries industry getting a shake up. We're at 2 00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:04,600 Speaker 1: the feedback stage on everything from catch limits to onboard 3 00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:07,600 Speaker 1: camera transparency. Shane Jones of course driving this even very 4 00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:11,039 Speaker 1: vocal about the unnecessary regulations which impede productivity and potential. 5 00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:15,000 Speaker 1: Sea Lord CEO Doug Pauland's with us, Doug morning, did 6 00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:17,760 Speaker 1: I make you're getting basically what you want? Do you think? 7 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:20,919 Speaker 2: Well? I think it's a good start to the changes 8 00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:23,680 Speaker 2: the industry have been requesting for a reasonable period of 9 00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:27,320 Speaker 2: time and what we're seeing as an acknowledgment that fishing 10 00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:30,200 Speaker 2: is in a much different place, particularly over the last 11 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:35,479 Speaker 2: five years, as technology has increased significantly, and now that 12 00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:39,960 Speaker 2: we've got digital reporting, we've got vessel locators going into 13 00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:42,879 Speaker 2: MPLA daily, and we've seen the introduction of cameras to 14 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:45,919 Speaker 2: many of the fishing vessels. It's become a very striking 15 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:48,879 Speaker 2: call to say the regulations are no longer fit for purpose. 16 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 2: So I think it's been It's a very good start. 17 00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:53,840 Speaker 1: Seven and a half million year company pays the Ministry 18 00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 1: of Primary Industries. What do you get for that? 19 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 2: We get a lot of oversight, We yet comply science. 20 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 2: We pay for our own policing by the Ministry of 21 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:11,480 Speaker 2: Fisheries and Ministry of Primary Industries. We get science for that, 22 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 2: which is great. We do also pay towards the Department 23 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 2: of Conservation, which is great to see. Sometimes we don't 24 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:21,039 Speaker 2: get a lot important to where that money goes. So 25 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:25,759 Speaker 2: that's something we're looking for change moving forward. So look, 26 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,760 Speaker 2: I think there's room for that number to come down personally, 27 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 2: because what's happened is the number has gone up and 28 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 2: up and up to the point it's very difficult to 29 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:35,960 Speaker 2: make returns out of fishing. 30 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 1: I noticed I was looking at Jones and TikTok and 31 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:40,319 Speaker 1: cameras and stuff like that. How much of this reformers 32 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:42,959 Speaker 1: about cameras on board and TikTok and going to the court, 33 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 1: And how much there's media stuff there is the cameras 34 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: the headline stuff or is that. 35 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 2: A major not really? Look, I think the cameras are 36 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:54,360 Speaker 2: a bit of a distraction in reality, the cameras and Look, 37 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 2: Shane's acknowledged that his personal view is different to what's 38 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 2: been decided by cabinet. It's different to what even some 39 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 2: industry players believe and look for here to stay. What 40 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 2: we're seeing now is we're seeing an acknowledgment that it's 41 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:10,360 Speaker 2: not right for the public to say, well, we want 42 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 2: the right to look at people in their workplaces. It's 43 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 2: like saying, will I go to an office every day 44 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 2: if there was a camera behind me watching me on 45 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 2: my computer, and then any man and his dog could 46 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,360 Speaker 2: request that footage and see what I'm doing. I don't 47 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 2: think generally if the public understood that's what's happening, they'd 48 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 2: be very happy. I like the read and see everything 49 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 2: they want. 50 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 1: Sure correct me if I'm wrong. I liking you guys 51 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:35,080 Speaker 1: to farmers. You don't get up in the morning, and 52 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,160 Speaker 1: this is catch limits and all that stuff. You guys 53 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 1: don't get up in the morning to ruin your business, 54 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 1: do you. Therefore, of course, not exactly. But so what 55 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,080 Speaker 1: we've had is a system whereby we think you are 56 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 1: all criminals and we'll need to monitor you and keep 57 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 1: you in line and all of that stuff. And all 58 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,080 Speaker 1: that's happening here is a bit of ideological change, and 59 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:52,919 Speaker 1: you can get on with life and get on with business. 60 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:54,239 Speaker 2: One hundred percent. 61 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:56,359 Speaker 1: Nice to talk to you.
