The draft document Application to the Department of the Environment and Water Resources on the Beche-De-Mer Fishery (the submission) was received by the Department of Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts (DEWHA) in September 2007. The submission was released for public comment which expired on 19 November 2007. 1 public comment was received and DFWA provided a response to the issues raised.
