This Recommendation of the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT) requires Contracting Parties and Cooperating non-Contracting Parties, Entities, and Fishing Entities (CPCs) that allow foreign-flagged vessels to fish in waters under their jurisdiction for species managed by ICCAT, and CPCs whose vessels fish in waters under the jurisdiction of another CPC or non-Contracting party (NCP) for species managed by ICCAT pursuant to an agreement, to notify, individually or jointly, the Commission prior to beginning fishing activities of the existence of such agreements (or modification of agreements) and provide to the Commission specified information concerning these agreements. Flag CPCs and coastal CPCs involved in agreements shall provide a summary of the activities carried out pursuant to each agreement, including all catches made pursuant to these agreements, in their annual report to the Commission.
