From Morning Report, 8:45 am on 26 February 2019

Forest & Bird says a fishing company in Napier doesn't deserve to have their boats back after they were fined just over $1 million for illegal fishing. Hawke's Bay Seafoods, along with its directors Nino and Joe D'Esposito and general manager Marcus D'Esposito, had admitted 131 charges breaches of the Fisheries Act. Forest and Bird's Geoff Keey speaks to Philippa Tolley.
