A Select Committee of Inquiry upon the Fishing Industry was appointed in 1975 and one of its major recommendations was the establishment of a separate Fisheries Department. After the election of the Wran Government in May 1976, NSW State Fisheries was removed from the responsibility of the Minister for Lands and was established as a separate Department. On 16 March 1983, NSW State Fisheries was abolished and its branches were established as the Division of Fisheries within the Department of Agriculture. © State of New South Wales through Museums of History NSW
