- The Broome Prawn Management Plan 1999, made under the Western Australian Fish Resources Management Act 1994, requires persons engaged in fishing under the management regime to take all reasonable steps to ensure that members of listed threatened species, listed migratory species, cetaceans and listed marine species are not killed or injured as a result of the fishing; and

- the survival or recovery in nature of any listed threatened species; or
- the conservation status of a listed migratory species, cetacean, or listed marine species or a population of that species,
hereby accredit the Broome Prawn Management Plan 1999, pursuant to sections 208A, 222A, 245 and 265 of the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 for the purposes of Divisions 1, 2, 3 and 4 of Part 13 of the Act.
