External aspects of fisheries management
External aspects of fisheries management
This chapter focuses on: the EC's participation in the global instruments discussed in Chapter 3, which lay down the basic norms of current international fisheries law; EC access agreements with third States; and EC membership of regional fisheries management organizations (RFMOs). Negotiating and concluding global fisheries instruments, bilateral access agreements, and membership of RFMOs obviously involves the exercise of treaty-making powers by the EC. The chapter looks at the source and scope of the EC's competence to negotiate and become a party to treaties in the field of fisheries. Finally, it considers EC involvement with some other international fisheries management issues.
