The Future of our Fisheries program is intended to help advise fisheries policy moving forward into 2018.

The NZUA was pleased to be invited, via its association with LegaSea, to contribute to and attend a submission’s sessions with the Technical Advisory Group - TAG as part of the Future of our Fisheries program.
