Queensland's native fish require adequate movement along the state's rivers and streams for their survival. Because of this, any in-stream barriers to fish movement in Queensland are regulated under the Fisheries Act 1994.
The Department of Agriculture and Fisheries proudly acknowledges all First Nations peoples (Aboriginal peoples and Torres Strait Islanders) and the Traditional Owners and Custodians of the country on which we live and work. We acknowledge their continuing connection to land, waters and culture and commit to ongoing reconciliation. We pay our respect to their Elders past, present and emerging.
Our visual identity incorporates artwork by Shara Delaney, a Quandamooka woman.
