The network of regional fisheries bodies globally and the relationship between the national EEZs and regional management organisation.

Bringing all fisheries in the NEAFC Regulatory area under management, developing and enhancing the institutional framework and bringing into place the proper tools for monitoring, surveillance and control, so the measures agreed by NEAFC parties are properly enforced, will be described.

Details of amendments to the NEAFC Convention, the Scheme of Control and Enforcement and the battle against IUU fishing will be presented.
