How stupid do they think Australians are? If we let them put one foot in the door, we wouldn't get them out again and they would eventually be out there fishing.
Was all started by a Tasmanian company who contracted to trawler to fish the southern waters, the Gov then stepped in and cancelled the permits so now they have tried to use it as a mothership, processing the smaller trawlers catch at sea so they don't lose time travelling back to port to unload and refuel every ten days or so.
Now they have done the righty again in preventing that from happening.
Enough of this thing goes on with the Northern prawn trawl fishery. The fish need a break, just as the men/women who catch them. They have already smashed orange roughy into extinction in Australia and New Zeland. I am sure the fish appreciate!!

Artificial reef
Best thing for that trawler would be to convert it into a reef!
This habit is getting expensive!

dont worry, whatever happens
dont worry, whatever happens we will all likely be paying for it.
Thanks to the ballsup made by the Federal Gov....

The older you get the more you realize that no one has a f++king clue what they're doing.
Everyone's just winging it.

Maybe not, the guy forged docs and failed to disclose his conflict of interest.
