According to the Minister for Primary Industries and Water, David Llewellyn, the concerns of Tasmania’s licensed anglers have been heard and understood in the planning of the Midlands Water Scheme.
“Angling and irrigated agriculture share a long history in Tasmania and both will make a growing contribution to our economy and our unique rural and regional communities,” Mr Llewellyn said.
“I understand that following the Government’s announcement of the preferred option for the Midlands Water Scheme in September last year, significant concern arose among anglers regarding the potential impact of the scheme on Arthurs Lake.
