The Mari­time Uni­on says inform­a­tion revealed in a New Zea­l­and doc­u­ment­ary on the fish­ing industry must be fol­lowed up by a Gov­ern­ment inquiry.

The doc­u­ment­ary The Great New Zea­l­and Fish­ing Scan­dal by invest­ig­at­ive journ­al­ist Guy Hende­r­son screened on Sky last night and today, and covered devel­op­ments in the industry since the 1990s.

Mari­time Uni­on Gen­er­al Sec­ret­ary Tre­vor Han­son says the doc­u­ment­ary was accur­ate and he believes there is much more to be uncovered.
