Mr Jim Allingham (North & West)

Council:
The Council consists of approximately half the total membership, entitlement to a seat at Council being determined by the size of the fishery board. The size of a fishery board is determined by the rateable value of the fishings in the Board area (determined impartially by the local authority assessor) which in turn relates partly to the total number of salmon taken within that Board area. Those 16 fishery boards with the highest catch are entitled to a seat at Council. The remaining Boards have seats at Council based on representation from groups of smaller Boards in predetermined regions.
Membership of the Council is currently as follows:
