Résumé

This Measure of the Commission of the South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO), recognising that unregulated and unreported transhipment of catches of fishery resources, in particular on the high seas, contributes to distorted reporting of catches of such stocks and supports illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing in the Convention Area, allows transhipments at sea and in port only to be undertaken between vessels included in the Commission Record of Vessels. Also, at sea transfer of fuel, crew, gear or any other supplies between two vessels in the Convention Area shall only be undertaken between authorised vessels included in the Commission Record of Vessels. The Measure also concerns notification of certain transshipment by competent authorities of the receiving fishing vessel (carrier vessel), monitoring and reporting of the transhipment activities by observers in accordance with the applicable CMMs, and notification of competent authorities of the unloading fishing vessel and the receiving fishing vessel of all the operational details to the Secretariat, as specified in Annex 1. The text consists of 12 Articles and 3 Annexes.
