Proposed Amendments to the MoP Rules of Procedure. 2.2.1 The Chair of the Intersessional Committee established by Resolution 4.8 tabled the report of the Committee to the MoP (MoP5 Doc 29).

The report summarises matters considered intersessionally and contains a proposal to amend Rule 4 of the MoP Rules of Procedure, to remove a potential ambiguity for some Parties concerning the wording of Rule 4(1) and, to include new sub-rules that would enable applications for participation by any member economy of the Asia Pacific Economic Co-operation Forum whose vessels fish within the range of albatrosses and petrels (‘relevant APEC member economies’) in sessions of the MoP and its subsidiary bodies, unless one-third of Parties objected.

Proposed Amendments to the MoP Rules of Procedure. 2.2.1 Australia presented MoP4 Doc 06 noting that, if ACAP is to achieve its conservation objective, it is essential that ACAP promptly develop a close and co-operative relationship with all States and APEC member economies whose vessels fish within the range of albatrosses and petrels listed under Annex 1 of the Agreement. In particular, improved relationships with those States and economies with distant water longlining fleets are a high priority. To this end, Australia welcomed the approach of ACAP Parties to facilitating the participation of a wide range of observers. This is consistent with the provisions of the Agreement which encourage those concerned with the conservation and management of albatrosses and petrels to participate as observers in sessions of the MoP and its subsidiary bodies.
