Conservation Minister Nick Smith and Primary Industries Minister Nathan Guy this afternoon announced the proposal which will outlaw the removal of shark fins and the dumping of shark carcasses in the sea. The practise of finning sharks is inconsistent with New Zealands reputation as one of the best managed and conserved fisheries in the world, Mr Guy said at the Island Bay Marine Education Centre in Wellington. We need to ensure New Zealands 113 species of sharks are sustainably managed and that we provide incentives to utilise as much of the resource as practically possible.
