Resumen

This Act amends the Fisheries Management Act 1998 principally to provide with respect to port state measures and the monitoring of activities of fishing vessels in the waters of Papua New Guinea. The Act also modifies provisions concerning the administration of the National Fisheries Authority and repeals and replaces section 25, which defines the fundamental objective of the principal Act, sets out principles and measures that the Minister and the Board or the Managing Director of the Authority shall take into account when performing functions or exercising powers under the principal Act, and concerns application of the precautionary approach (as described in the Agreement for the Implementation of the Provisions of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea of 10 December 1982 relating to the Conservation and Management of Straddling Fish Stocks and Highly Migratory Fish Stocks) and an ecosystem approach to the conservation and management of fishery resources. The definitions of "international conservation and management measures" is amended to as to include among others, the Agreement to Promote Compliance with International Conservation and Management Measures by Fishing Vessels on the High Seas in 1993 (FAO Compliance Agreement).
