		The Convention provides a framework for regional cooperation in the conservation and management of Antarctic marine fauna and flora through the establishment of a Commission for the Conservation and Management of Antarctic Marine Living Resources, hereinafter called the "CCAMLR", and the adoption by the latter of conservation measures which become binding on the Contracting Parties.
		Once the CCAMLR has taken a decision, the new fishery shall be authorised by the Commission in cases where the CCAMLR has not adopted any conservation measure with regard to the new fishery, or by the Council, acting by a qualified majority on a proposal from the Commission, in all other cases.
		CCAMLR inspectors shall be familiar with the scientific research activities to be inspected, the provisions of the Convention and the conservation measures adopted under it.

	Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade: Antarctic Division - Convention on the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		CCAMLR provides for the conservation of fin fish, molluscs, crustaceans and all other species of living organisms, including birds, within the area for which it is responsible, while providing for the rational use of these resources.
		CCAMLR was established mainly in response to fears that unregulated fishing for krill, one of the key species in the Antarctic marine food web, could have serious adverse effects on whales, seals, penguins and other species which directly or indirectly depend on krill for food.
		The Convention adopts an “ecosystem approach” which provides that krill and all the other living resources of the Southern Ocean are treated as an integrated system where effects on predator, prey and related species are considered and decisions on sustainable harvesting levels are made on the basis of sound scientific advice.

		This Convention applies to the Antarctic marine living resources of the area south of 60 degrees South latitude and to the Antarctic marine living resources of the area between that latitude and the Antarctic Convergence which form part of the Antarctic marine ecosystem.
		The Antarctic Convergence shall be deemed to be a line joining the following points along parallels of latitude and meridians of longitude: 50ø S, 0ø; 50ø S, 30ø E; 45ø S, 30ø E; 45ø S, 80ø E; 55ø S, 80ø E; The objective of this Convention is the conservation of Antarctic marine living resources.
		Any harvesting and associated activities in the area to which this Convention applies shall be conducted in accordance with the provisions of this Convention and with the following principles of conservation: (a) prevention of decrease in the size of any harvested population to levels below those which ensure its stable recruitment.

	General Introduction
		The Convention on the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources came into force in 1982, as part of the Antarctic Treaty System, in pursuance of the provisions of Article IX of the Treaty.
		The Convention establishes a Commission to manage the marine living resources of the area for which it is responsible.
		The resources specifically exclude whales and seals, which are the subject of other conventions – namely, the International Convention for the Regulation of Whaling and the Convention for the Conservation of Antarctic Seals.

	1.10, 1.10.1, 1.10.2, 1.10.3
		The conclusion of the Convention for the Conservation of Antarctic Seals in 1972, dealing with a high seas resource, opened the way to a consideration of the questions that would be posed by the potential large scale exploitation of krill.
		The other ways in which the Convention broke new ground were firstly in being concluded, like the Convention for the Conservation of Antarctic Seals, before the fish- ery for the crucial species (krill) had got beyond the experimental phase, and secondly, in adopting an ecosystem approach to conservation.
		Conservation measures, whether national measures or measures adopted by the Commission, in respect of the waters adjacent to Kerguelen and Crozet, would be enforced by France.

		Established under the Convention, the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) manages living marine resources in the Convention Area - Map.
		The Convention's sole objective is the "conservation of Antarctic marine living resources".
		Importantly, the Convention requires that the conservation of Antarctic marine living resources and decisions about their rational use must be based on an ecosystem approach to managing such resources.

		These were agreed upon in accordance with Article IX of the Convention for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources.
		The Commission also amended the conservation measure specifying aspects of cooperation among Contracting Parties so that vessels known to be engaged in illegal, unregulated or unreported fishing must be denied port access, other than for emergency purposes.
		CCAMLR adopted four new resolutions relating to illegal fishing and implementation of the catch documentation scheme for Dissostichus species.

		The Southern Ocean surrounds the continent of Antarctica and is clearly delimited by the Antarctic Convergence, which is formed where the cold Antarctic waters meet the warmer waters to the north.
		The Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) and its Scientific Committee were a pioneer in the development of what has become known as the 'ecosystem approach' to the regulation of fisheries.
