Assumptions regarding west coast rock lobster poaching scenarios for 2014 updated assessments

At the previous SWG meeting, Johnston was asked to please circulate to the SWG members the previous assumptions regarding poaching that were used for the 2013 updated assessments (reported in full in FISHERIES/2013/AUG/SWG-WCRL20). An email to the SWG members was sent out on 2/4/2014 requesting that if anyone had any objections to these assumptions to please respond by 16 April 2014. No objections were received, and thus it is proposed that the poaching scenarios remain unchanged from those agreed upon in 2013. These are reported below for clarification.
