    The Greens want to see more marine protected areas and better enforcement of fisheries

    The Greens want to see more marine protected areas and better enforcement of fisheries


    Talley's deepwater fishing division, Amaltal, has been found guilty of illegally bottom trawling in the Hikurangi Marine Reserve near Kaikoura.

    Green MP Eugenie Sage says big fishing companies have been allowed to plunder our waters with little consequence for too long.

    She hopes Fisheries New Zealand and MPI, will continue to crack down on illegal and harmful behaviour.

    Amaltal is considering appealing the guilty verdict.
