Second Bigeye Management Workshop

The Chair will review and seek confirmation of the BMW02 outcomes and guidance, including the candidate MPs and fisheries/spatial application and TRP options retained for further consideration, the rationale for removing options, guidance on HCR shape and operational and implementation arrangements, and any additional BET or YFT MSE analyses or other SSP work requested. The outcomes should also record BMW02 feedback on the revised BET OMs for consideration by the Special SC Session, identify outstanding scientific matters requiring further SC consideration, and clearly specify management and policy matters remaining for decision by WCPFC23.
