    Abstract

    Australia has identified three general improvements to conservation measures that would assist the operation of CCAMLR in meeting its overall objectives. In summary Australia recommends that: o Conservation Measure 10-02 paragraph 4(x) specify that high quality photographs must be submitted; o the IUU Vessel Lists include all subsequent sightings or IUU related activities of listed vessels by amending Conservation Measure 10-06 paragraph 16 and Conservation Measure 10-07 paragraph 20; and o a sentence be added to Conservation Measure 10-03 paragraph 1 specifying that the term fishing vessel includes mother ships and any other vessels involved in the commercial exploitation of living marine resources.
