In this stage, the expected fisher

In this stage, the expected fisher behaviours under the different scenarios (a future and its associated storyline) were compared. This stage allowed opportunity for discussion on the sustainability of the fishery under alternative futures, and identification of which behaviours were common to more than one scenario and which were unique to one particular scenario. This final stage therefore served as the basis for recommendations concerning which of the fisher behaviours should be key considerations of policymakers when planning future management policies.
