contained in this guide. <strong>Forest</strong> & <strong>Bird</strong> welcomes any comments or further information on<br />

Note:<br />
The rankings criteria were not applied to fish or seafood imported from other countries,<br />
such as tinned <strong>and</strong> frozen fish, or seafood from aquaculture. A set of critieria for<br />
aquaculture species is being developed. Nor did it assess regional variations in fisheries.<br />
It assessed average New Zeal<strong>and</strong> fisheries based on methods, impacts <strong>and</strong> management.
