Recfishwest CEO Dr Andrew Roland has lashed the State government south coast marine park that will see imposed no-fishing zones feature from Bremer Bay to Cocklebiddy.

Dr Roland told Oliver Peterson on Perth Live the selected locations for the marine parks have simply voided any thought to how it will affect locals. 

“Clearly the local input has been ignored in some of these areas and it’s important that we really need the minister to now listen to genuine consultation and take onboard the local views.”

“This marine park has been planned out of Perth and we think the planners are out of touch with the local community,” Dr Roland said.
