In May 2022 The Tasmanian Legislative Council published the report on its comprehensive Fin Fish Inquiry… a parliamentary investigation into the Tasmanian Salmon Industry which has been operating since the 1980s. 68 recommendations were tabled in parliament as part of this report, and the most promising was Recommendation 3. The Government’s response to the recommendation was not supportive, but for the health of Tasmania’s precious waterways, advocacy groups from across the State, and now the globe, are working to make sure that recommendation, and the report, don’t sit on a shelf.
