where:
number of SFRs is the number of gear SFRs held by the applicant.
number of standard machines is the number of standard squid jigging machines allocated, under section 12, to a gear SFR for the fishing year.
CF is the conversion factor for the type of non‑standard machine, decided by AFMA in accordance with subsection (3).

 (3) In deciding the conversion factor for a type of non‑standard squid jigging machine, AFMA must take into account the efficiency of such a non‑standard machine relative to the efficiency of a standard squid jigging machine.

 (4) If an application is made under subsection (1), AFMA must give the applicant written notice of:
 (a) the number of non‑standard squid jigging machines of that type that are taken to be allocated to the applicant's gear SFR or gear SFRs for a fishing year; and
 (b) the conversion factor for the non‑standard machine.

 (5) An applicant may seek a review of a decision about the conversion factor for a type of non‑standard squid jigging machine as if the decision were a relevant decision under section 165 of the Act.

15 Who may fish in the fishery

 (1) Subject to section 17, a person may engage in squid jigging in the fishery only if the person:

 (b) uses no more than the allowed number of squid jigging machines; and
 (c) uses the boat that is nominated for the SFR; and
 (d) acts in accordance with the conditions of the SFR.

Note   For the conditions to which an SFR is subject, see Part 6 of this Management Plan and subsections 22 (3), (4) and (5) of the Act.

 (2) In paragraph (1) (b):
allowed number, for a person who holds, or is acting on behalf of a person who holds, a gear SFR or gear SFRs, means the number (rounded down, if not a whole number, to the nearest lower whole number) of:
 (a) standard squid jigging machines allocated to the gear SFR or gear SFRs; or
 (b) non‑standard squid jigging machines that are taken to be allocated to the gear SFR or gear SFRs, as decided in accordance with section 14.

Example
If a person holds a gear SFR that has been allocated 5.5 standard squid jigging machines, the allowed number for the person is 5 standard squid jigging machines.
