Thanks for sharing that fantastic link leyland. For years I have been requesting for such a list. In fact, I brought it up a couple of months ago at a meeting and was told that such a list is not available. I'm assuming this only contains violations from all three sectors that have resulted in larger fines while smaller offences such as fishing without a license are not listed.

Interesting stuff. I was hoping to see the person I reported, they had photos on Fbook. Posing with two red coho with the adipose freshly cut off, from the Stave.
