33061 (2025). Teanau Tuiono to the Minister for Oceans and Fisheries

33061 (2025). Teanau Tuiono to the Minister for Oceans and Fisheries: What evidence, if any, does the Minister have to suggest that the current regulations on fishing in the Pacific have 'marginalised' New Zealand fishers in the Pacific Ocean relative to those from other countries?

Hon Shane Jones: As a member of the Forum Fisheries Agency and the Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission, New Zealand advocates for its position with other member countries on the sustainable management of fisheries in the region. This supports New Zealand’s opportunities to fish on the high seas.
