22nd Regular Session of the Northern Committee

NC22 will review reports from CCMs and observers on the implementation of CMM 2019- 03, including compiled catch and effort information. Discussions will include clarification of reporting practices (e.g., use of effort metrics such as vessel numbers vs. fishing days), consistency in reporting between the Convention Area and the entire North Pacific, and trends in catch and effort. NC22 will also consider any issues identified in members’ reports and encourage improvements in reporting completeness and transparency.
