Annotation
2025 marks the fifteenth year of implementation of the CMS. CMM 2023-04 Conservation and Management Measure for the Compliance Monitoring Scheme will apply from 2024 – 2026.
TCC21 will review:
- the assessment of the 2025 Compliance Monitoring Report (CMR) covering reporting year (RY) 2024 using audit points adopted by the Commission,
- the aggregate tables summarizing information in the WCPFC online compliance case file system (CCFS), and
- reports from relevant CCMs on their progress to resolve certain individual implementation gaps from the previous year.
TCC21 will develop a Provisional CMR for the previous reporting period (RY2024), considering any Capacity Development Plans developed pursuant to CMM 2023-04 paragraphs 16-18, and other information described in paragraph 28(ii), any additional information provided by CCMs, and, where appropriate, any additional information provided by non-government organizations or other organizations concerned with matters relevant to the implementation of the Convention. The provisional CMR will contain the following:
- an executive summary,
- a compliance status with respect to all applicable individual obligations as well as recommendations for any corrective action(s) needed by the CCM or action(s) to be taken by the Commission, based on potential compliance issues identified in respect of that CCM or collective group of CCMs, and using the criteria and considerations for assessing Compliance Status set out in Annex 1 of CMM 2023-04 ,
- tables including aggregated data (templates attached in Annex III to CMM 2023-04 ) relating to the information provided in paragraph 11 of CMM 2023-04 , including recommendations or observations from TCC in accordance with CMM 2023-04 , and
- tables including reports by relevant CCMs on their progress to resolve certain individual obligation implementation gaps from the previous year/s, and TCC21 recommendations whether the previous year compliance status continues or if reporting now satisfies the audit point requirements.
