Proposal for a CCAMLR Compliance Evaluation Procedure

Further to the strong will expressed by Members at CCAMLR XXX to progress the work of the Development of a Compliance Evaluation Procedure Group, Australia coordinated intersessional work on developing a compliance evaluation procedure. Australia has developed a draft conservation measure proposing a CCAMLR Compliance Evaluation Procedure (CEP), presented at Attachment A. The purpose of the proposed CCAMLR CEP is to provide a formal mechanism for the assessment of Members' compliance against the conservation measures adopted by the Commission.  Australia proposes that the Commission adopt the attached draft conservation measure establishing a compliance evaluation procedure for CCAMLR.
