Résumé

This Conservation and Management Measure of the Meeting of the Parties to the Southern Indian Ocean Fisheries Agreement, referring to United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) Resolutions to control large-scale pelagic drift‐net fishing and bottom fishing, prohibits any vessel flying the flag of a Contracting Party, cooperating non-Contracting Party (CNCP) or participating fishing entity (PFE) to use large-scale pelagic driftnets in the Agreement Area. It is recommended that deepwater gillnets are not to be used until he Meeting of the Parties has received a recommendation from the Scientific Committee. Nothing in this measure shall prevent Contracting Parties, CNCPs or PFEs from applying more stringent measures to large-scale pelagic driftnets not covered by this CMM, or to deepwater gillnets.
