    Abstract

    After several years of budget deficit, alongside increases in demand in activities for the Secretariat combined with a shortfall in notification fees, this paper recommends a number of options for SCAF to consider which should both underpin the return of a balanced or zero-deficit General Fund budget within the next few years, and supports wider engagement in the work of CCAMLR.
