In 2017, the Scientific Committee agreed to hold a Workshop on Spatial Management (SC-CAMLR-XXXVI, paragraph 13.23) as part of its five-year work plan. It also noted a number of issues related to specific MPA planning processes that could be discussed further at the workshop.
The Scientific Committee’s five-year work plan (SC-CAMLR-XXXVI/BG/40) set out science topics under the theme of ‘Spatial management of impacts on the Antarctic ecosystem’, and highlighted two priority topics for the Workshop on Spatial Management:
- Spatial planning data management
- Implementation of the Ross Sea Region MPA Research and Monitoring Plan
The workshop terms of reference were developed intersessionally, based on the science topics and priorities in the five-year work plan, and were updated following feedback from Members (SC CIRC 18/18).
Submitted workshop papers, along with presentations and analyses conducted during the workshop, will form the basis for discussion and advice.

The Workshop will consider general principles, in pursuance of the objective and principles of the Convention, to make use of the full range of spatial management tools available to be implemented under CM 91-04 and other mechanisms. Where possible, the workshop will aim to identify common elements and approaches on issues including:
- Achievement of the objectives of CM 91-04 across the Convention Area
- Criteria and methods to scientifically interpret and measure the achievement of MPA objectives
- Scientific background information and methodologies required for spatial management planning processes, including considerations of data availability.

The workshop will review progress and updates on the development of a proposal for a system of MPAs in Planning Domain 1, including work progressed by the Domain 1 MPA Expert Group. This will include consideration of issues raised by WG-EMM (SC-CAMLR-XXXVI, Annex 6, paragraphs 4.21 to 4.22) and the Scientific Committee (SC-CAMLR-XXXVI, paragraphs 5.19 to 5.35).
Focus topics identified by the D1MPA Expert Group for its work include:
- Climate change and reference areas for D1MPA;
- Krill fishery management strategies and harmonisation with D1MPA;
- Information on fisheries in the D1MPA planning process (e.g. cost layer, krill fishery displacement, toothfish research fishery).

The workshop will develop recommendations for data management in relation to:
- Spatial management planning processes
- MPA research and monitoring plans.
This will include consideration of the requirements for data management by the Secretariat (noting ongoing work by the Data Management Group), as well as the potential links with, and use of, existing external data portals and warehouses (e.g. SOOS).
Specifically in relation to the RSRMPA, this will include a preliminary discussion on how the Scientific Committee should review Member reports on scientific activities in 2021 as specified under CM 91-05 (paragraph 15), and how the Secretariat should compile such reports.

As is usual practice in meetings of the Scientific Committee and its working groups, rapporteurs will draft sections of the report according to general guidelines for its production. The Secretariat is responsible for formatting, editing and circulation of the report. Any proposed changes to the report prior to report adoption should be arranged through the rapporteurs or the Co-conveners using the web-based document management system. Adoption of the report will be conducted interactively.
Discussion will conclude by midday on Thursday, allowing Thursday afternoon and evening for report preparation and reading. Report adoption will be on Friday morning.
