Abstract

This paper outlines a set of updated proposals for use in the Harvest Strategy and Decision Rules framework (referred to as the HSDR) for the West Coast Rock Lobster Managed Fishery (WCRLMF)2, which have been developed to facilitate implementation of the new quota based management system. Where relevant, this current document utilises the information and outcomes presented in the previous discussion document on HSDR3 (Donohue et al., 2010) developed for use with the then input (effort) control management system that operated until 2009/10.
