Résumé

This Resolution of the Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC), requires each Party and co-operating non-party, co-operating fishing entity or regional economic integration organization (collectively “CPCs”) to establish and implement a national plan of action for conservation and management of shark stocks, in accordance with the FAO International Plan of Action for the Conservation and Management of Sharks. CPCs shall take the measures necessary to require that their fishers fully utilize any retained catches of shark (retention by the fishing vessel of all parts of the shark excepting head, guts, and skins, to the point of first landing). CPCs shall require their vessels to have onboard fins that total no more than five percent of the weight of sharks onboard, up to the first point of landing. CPCs that currently do not require fins and carcasses to be offloaded together at the point of first landing shall take the necessary measures to ensure compliance with the five-percent ratio through certification, monitoring by an observer, or other appropriate measures. Fishing vessels are prohibited from retaining on board, transshipping, landing or trading in any fins harvested in contravention of this Resolution. Other provisions concern data collection and research.
