Mr. Barry Fox:

I do not agree. These are fisheries enforcement officers. They are rostered in and out of work, but on occasion, when there is surveillance of illegal activity - known illegal activity - staff spend significant hours surveying those issues and trying to hold people to account. There are times where they will exceed the hours but their line managers on the ground will be aware of the hours they do. It is not just that the fisheries staff on the ground decide they will stay there for the next 20 hours. They will be in constant contact with their line managers, assistant inspectors and inspectors.
