31D  Exercise and lapsing of option
 (1) A person who holds a statutory fishing rights option is taken to exercise the option if the person has received a notice under paragraph 31K(1)(a) and, within the period stated in the notice, notifies AFMA, by writing signed by the person, that the person exercises the option in respect of all, or a stated number, of the statutory fishing rights to which the option relates.
 (2) If a person does not exercise a statutory fishing rights option in respect of all or some of the statutory fishing rights to which the option relates, the option lapses in respect of the statutory fishing rights in respect of which the option is not exercised.
