(1) If:
(a) an eligible person has tendered; and
(b) either the bid is less than the reserve price or is invalid;
then the person is not to be recorded on the precedence list.
Note: A grant of a fishing right is made to persons on the precedence list only (see section 29 of the Act).
(2) For a person who, under subsection (1), is not recorded on the precedence list, the tender manager must record:
(a) the person's name; and
(b) the reason why the person is not recorded on the precedence list.
(3) The fact that a person is not placed on the precedence list does not affect the person's registration as an eligible person.
