Abstract
  • What is the best use of fishery performance? How can we assess progress in managing aquaculture and wild catch fisheries when a wide range of criteria is appropriate? The Australian Fisheries Research and Development Corporation funded a project in 2009 to estimate the benefits arising from managing fisheries and aquaculture and then compare best use to current outcomes. This project was repeated in 2014. These projects used the ‘Delphi Method’ with the collection of individual expert views in successive rounds of confidential consultation. At each stage a professional facilitator fed back to the panel of experts the results of the previous round.  The project design allowed for both the identification of what experts regarded the best use of marine resources to be, as well as an assessment of the gap between current performance and best use. The 2014 project indicated that there was an AUD 1 Billion gap between current fishery performance and best outcomes.  This presentation will briefly outline the results of these projects and then discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the methodology applied as against alternatives such as expert assessment, committees of experts and public committees of enquiry.
