Explanatory note

This note is not part of the regulations, but is intended to indicate their general effect.

The Fisheries (Electronic Monitoring on Vessels) Regulations 2017 (the principal regulations) came into force on 1 October 2018. Those regulations provide for the electronic monitoring of vessels used to fish under permits issued under section 91 or 113H of the Fisheries Act 1996. When a vessel is on a fishing trip under one of those permits,—

  • the fishing and fish taken must be filmed; and

  • the transportation of fish on the vessel (whether taken under the permit or not) must be filmed; and

  • associated information must be recorded.

The dates on which the principal regulations start to apply to vessels are staggered (see clause 1 of Schedule 1 of the principal regulations). The principal regulations applied to the first categories of vessels on and from 1 October 2018. However, the chief executive of the Ministry for Primary Industries exempted those vessels from the requirements of Part 1 of the principal regulations from 1 October 2018 to 31 January 2019 by issuing—

These regulations come into force on 31 January 2019 and amend the principal regulations as follows:

  • new clause 1(1AAA) of Schedule 1 is inserted with the effect that the principal regulations will cease to apply to the first categories of vessels after 31 January 2019:

  • clause 1(1) of Schedule 1 is amended by changing the dates on which the principal regulations apply to the first 3 categories of vessels from 1 October 2018, 1 February 2019, and 1 July 2019 to, in each case, 1 August 2019:

  • the example in clause 1(2) of Schedule 1 is removed because it outlines a scenario that no longer applies.

Issued under the authority of the Legislation Act 2012.

Date of notification in Gazette: 30 January 2019.

These regulations are administered by the Ministry for Primary Industries.
