What is a Fish & Game Council?

We have 12 regional Fish & Game Councils with regional offices. The national council, with an office in Wellington, coordinates regional activities and speaks for anglers and hunters on issues of national importance.

Each council has 12 members, elected from the licence holders of the region. An election is held every three years.  Every regional Fish & Game Council selects one member to sit on the New Zealand Council.

Councils employ professional staff to carry out their work. The total number of people employed by Fish & Game Councils around the country is about 70. We also have about 500 volunteer rangers who give up their time to ensure that fellow anglers and hunters have licences and follow fishing and hunting regulations.
