4th Global Fisheries Enforcement Training Workshop San Jose, 17-21 February 2014
Initiatives, instruments and tools to combat IUU fishing worldwide
- Major global threat to the
long-term sustainable management of fisheries
- FAO’s International Plan of
Action to Fight IUU fishing (IPOA-IUU)
- Port State Measures
Agreement (PSMA)
- Voluntary Guidelines for Flag
State Performance (FSP)
- EU IUU regulation

Global Record
- One of the latest tools
to fight IUU fishing
- Strong synergies with
the PSMA and FSP
- Information on
identification of fishing vessels and fishing- related activities

The Global Record of Fishing Vessels, Refrigerated Transport Vessels and Supply Vessels Central repository of vessel related information that can be used to:
- identify the vessel;
- describe its capacity and capability;
- identify its owners and associated interests;
- identify its fishing authorizations;
- provide a history of non-compliance
(inspections, infractions, IUU lists, etc.)
- provide any other relevant and available data

Programme components
Three major areas:
- Promotion
- Capacity development
- System development
6

Scope (not only for fishing vessels)
The Global Record also applies to other vessels involved in fishing
- perations:
- refrigerated transport
vessels
- supply vessels
Enhanced transparency in
- transhipment operations
and
- refuelling at sea

Phased approach (as agreed at the 2010 TC)
Phase 1: Vessels of >=100 GT or 100 GRT or >=24m Phase 2: Vessels between 50 and 100 GT; or 50 and 100 GRT; or 18 and 24m Phase 3: Vessels between 10 and 50 GT; or 10 and 50 GRT; or 12 and 24m

Unique Vessel Identifier (UVI)
- UVI - the key component to
identify and track vessels
- 1st step: vessels >= 100 GT/GRT
- UVI – also useful for traceability
- f fishery products
- New resolution A.1078(28) on
IMO Ship Identification Number Scheme
- IMO Numbers now apply also to
fishing vessels
- Preconditions have now been
met of using the IMO Number as the UVI

Current and future work on system development
- Prototype system on Phase 1
for demonstration at COFI
- UVI number related
information (from IHS-M, EQUASIS, RFMOs, etc.)
- Strategy paper (session
background document) for COFI 2014
- Phase 1 operational
- Expansion to Phase 2
11

Funding
- Ad hoc funding, mainly on
capacity development
- Consistent funding
(through a long-term project), is urgently needed for the system finalisation and operation
- Costs could be shared by
a group of contributors (as is the case for EQUASIS)
12
Donors that have provided funding for the development of the Global Record:
- Australia
- EC
- Republic of Korea
- United Kingdom
- United States

Summary
Issues that have been addressed:
- necessity of an UVI
- UVI to be applied > 100 GRT
- RFMOs to coordinate their records
with the Global Record
- Potential data providers interested in
cooperating
- Prototype system at COFI 2014 with
certified data for approx. 23,000 fishing vessels
- Implementation of Phase 1, in a
matter of months, subject to availability of funds
