This Recommendation of the Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC), recalling the FAO International Guidelines on by-catch management and reduction of discards that aim to facilitate by-catch management and reduction of discards, in accordance with the FAO Code of Conduct for responsible fishing, introduces measures that seek to achieve a substantial reduction in discards of tropical tunas by 2020. The Recommendation requires Contracting Parties and Cooperating Non-Contracting Parties, Entities or Fishing Entities (CPCs) to impose some requirement about retaining bigeye, yellowfin and skipjack tuna on board and limiting the discarding of such catch.
