Abstract

Abstract The CCAMLR System of Inspection has been in place for more than 30 years, but its implementation and impact have yet to be summarised and analysed. The purpose of the research is to clarify the legal basis, analyse the implementation and make suggestions for further improvements. By analysing the CAMLR Convention and historical files, the System of Inspection has been further improved and many details have been added based on some international fisheries agreements and domestic laws regulating fisheries. Article XXIV of the CAMLR Convention, various Conservation Measures and documents form the legal basis of the System of Inspection. The System is divided into two types, namely At-sea inspection and Port inspection. Combined with the annual reports of CCAMLR meetings over the past 30 years, the System has become relatively complete as a “Compliance Monitoring Mechanism” under the CCAMLR Compliance Evaluation Procedure with other monitoring, control and surveillance (MCS) tools. However, inspection data have not been stable over the years. Since 2017, the increase in catches has not led to an increase in the number of inspections in the annual reports. In addition, At-sea inspections do not cover all Subareas of the Convention. At present, the objects of inspection have been extended to Non-Member vessels, so that it should also be sanctioned through various mechanisms. In addition, the System of Inspection is different from the Compliance Evaluation Procedure and the relationship between the two needs to be confirmed in practice. Due to the change in inspection methods, the lack of inspection data and the increase in other MCS tools, At-sea inspection does not cover all Subareas of the Convention. The System of Inspection is constantly being practised and improved. The study calls on Members to continue to carry out inspections and to improve the System in order to achieve the conservation and rational use of fishery resources.

CCAMLR检验制度的实施与实践研究

CCAMLR检查制度已经存在了30多年，但其实施和影响尚未得到总结和分析。研究的目的是明确法律依据，分析实施情况，并提出进一步改进的建议。通过对CAMLR公约和历史档案的分析，在一些国际渔业协定和管理渔业的国内法律的基础上，进一步完善了检查制度，增加了许多细节。根据CAMLR公约第24条，各种保护措施和文件构成了检查制度的法律基础。该系统分为海上检验和港口检验两种类型。结合CCAMLR过去30年的年度会议报告，该系统作为CCAMLR合规评估程序下的“合规监测机制”，与其他监测、控制和监督(MCS)工具相结合，已经相对完善。然而，多年来检验数据并不稳定。自2017年以来，捕捞量的增加并没有导致年度报告中检查次数的增加。此外，海上视察并不包括《公约》的所有分领域。目前，检查对象已扩大到非会员国船只，因此也应通过各种机制予以制裁。此外，检查制度不同于符合性评价程序，两者的关系需要在实践中加以确认。由于检查方法的变化、检查数据的缺乏以及其他MCS工具的增加，海上检查并未涵盖公约的所有次区域。巡视制度不断得到实践和完善。该研究呼吁各成员继续进行检查和改善该制度，以实现渔业资源的养护和合理利用。
