AnswerView source ↗
I thank the member for some notice of the question. (1) Holders of umbrella licences were surveyed in each of the years 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009. Umbrella licence holders must be surveyed in addition to the specific licence holders for every non-field-based survey completed to ensure that the full extent of fishing for a species or a category is sampled. Therefore, umbrella licence holders have been part of all rock lobster mail surveys; rock lobster phone diary surveys; abalone statewide phone diary surveys; marron annual recall phone surveys; plus any other annual recall survey or phone diary survey completed. (2) All surveys seek information on the level of catch and effort from the licensed fishers. This information is requested at either an annual, seasonal or daily level depending upon the survey method being used. It should be noted that the fact umbrella licence holders may first have to be asked if they undertook, or intended to undertake, any fishing related to the specific licence category of interest adds to the cost and complexity of each of these surveys. (3) The frequency of surveys for umbrella licence holders is the same as for each of the surveys of the specific licence categories.
