EFFECTIVE MEASURES/ACTIONS |
IMPACT OF MEASURES/ACTIONS ON IUU FISHING |
CCAMLR |
· Catch Documentation
Scheme |
· IUU fishing activities localized and dealt with effectively on a case-by-case basis. Most perceived offenders identified. |
CCSBT |
· Catch certification
scheme |
· The trade documentation scheme has eliminated flag of convenience vessels from a number of countries from the fishery because the market has been made inaccessible. More recently the scheme enabled the CCSBT to identify flag of convenience vessels operating under the flag of a country that was cooperating with the CCSBT. The CCSBT approached the cooperating country on the basis of trade information. The vessels have been deregistered and are no longer active in the fishery. |
FFA |
Use of a wide range of compliance measures, including:
|
· Keeping IUU fishing to a low background level instead of allowing it to get out of control |
ICCAT |
· Trade documentation
schemes |
· Noted in Part 2 of the
questionnaire that estimates of vessel numbers are lower than 2-4 years ago, but
this is no proof a declining trend |
NASCO |
· Coordination of surveillance
in international waters |
· Fishing in international
waters by non-Contracting parties has been eliminated and coordination of
surveillance improved. |
