Remember the March 22nd '07 huge ECOfishers public meeting, at the Mingara Club? Director Lindsay was right! We told you about the Greens' plans. We told you about the promises and the pitfalls, we told you it would happen - that it was only a matter of time. Well now, here it is - CONFIRMED! Central Coast, join the Club!
The government funded, extreme green National Parks Association is demanding:-
"That a large Marine Park, (94,000 ha) from The Entrance (at the south head of the entrance to Tuggerah Lakes) in the north to the southern end of The Royal National Park, in the south incorporating all estuarine and coastal waters to the 3 nm limit of the NSW marine jurisdiction, be established and zoned appropriately."
Happy days family fishers! This is the way they all start. The greenies announce their demands, (in exchange for green preferences) some government minister denies it, ("We have no plans at this stage, to have a marine park on the Central Coast") and suddenly and out of the "blue", it is announced and confirmed by government! That's how they all started, at Byron Bay, at Port Stephens and at Batemans Bay. And ECOfishers dealt with them all, on behalf of NSW recreational fishing families. Be alert and be alarmed. You have every need to be!
