  • add a new destination type code for fish under the quota management system that are listed in Schedule 6 of the Fisheries Act 1996 (other than spiny dogfish) and are returned to the water in accordance with the requirements set out in that schedule, and exempt those fish from having to be recorded on a monthly harvest return:

  • replace a specific reference to the Fisheries (Conversion Factors) Notice 2000 with a generic reference to a conversion factors notice given under section 188(1) of the Fisheries Act 1996:

  • add fishstock codes for species newly introduced into the quota management system: deepwater clam and knobbed whelk:

  • add a new landed state code for rays and skates that are landed as wings.
