Summary of provisions: (a) Parties agree to convene an Annual Conference of the Parties to establish measures for achieving the objectives of the Convention, such as the allowable harvest level for, and an individual national quota of, Pollock in the Area, and to establish a Scientific and Technical Committee to advise it (art.
