In 2003, the fishery's annual quota was set at ~~36,000 tonnes~~{{convert\|36000\|MT}}.<ref name=":0" /> By 2014, the annual quota had increased to ~~38,000 tonnes~~{{convert\|38000\|MT}}.<ref name=":1" /> The fishery's total landed catch peaked at ~~56,952 tonnes~~{{convert\|56952\|MT}} in the financial year 2004-05 stabilising at around ~~32,000 tonnes~~{{convert\|32000\|MT}} per ~~annum~~year thereafter. A key area of concern for industry compliance in 2004 was quota evasion. Quota evasion had previously occurred in several forms: unloading catch directly to tuna farms, failing to report prior to unloading catch and dumping excess catch at sea.<ref name=":0" />
