Ms Karin Dubsky:
That is right. That was an issue of in- or out-of-season mussel seed taking. There was a closed season during which if one took the mussel seed too early one might suffer much loss. However, there is a lot more to the Castlemaine story. At the time it concerned the former Minister, Mr. Carey, and there was illegal seed taking before the season opened.
