Ross and Sanderson considered the risk to New South Wales consumers of ciguatera fish poisoning to be ‘relatively low’ [8]. Sumner [9] ranked the risk of ciguatera in the general population as medium (risk ranking 45), and as high (risk ranking 60) for recreational fishers and their families in known ciguatera ‘hot spots’ in Queensland and the Northern Territory. The different rankings reflect self-regulation by fish marketing bodies, for example, bans on certain known ciguatoxic species and size limits on others, and the perceived need for greater education of recreational fishers.
ANZFA has not previously published a risk assessment of ciguatoxin in fish.
