Enmeshed in a bureaucratic delusion

The need for a more comprehensive and engaged policy for Australia in regional fisheries management is proposed in a new publication from the influential Lowy Institute for International Policy. It is entitled Enmeshed, Australia and Southeast Asia’s Fisheries. The author, Dr. Meryl Williams is a senior resource manager having an impressive list of executive positions with various state, federal and international bodies in her accompanying CV. Her extensive administrative experience and the consistency of her opinions with those expressed by other high level resource administrators make it reasonable to think she reflects prevailing thinking in this area.
