Book Description

The fourteenth session of the Compliance Committee (CoC) of the General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM) was held online on 21 May 2021. The Committee acknowledged the progress made in the implementation of intersessional activities. Concerning the status of compliance with GFCM decisions, the Committee decided to upgrade the compliance categories of some contracting parties and cooperating non-contracting parties (CPCs). More specifically, the European Union, Morocco and Turkey were upgraded to a fully compliant status, whereas Israel was upgraded to a partially compliant status. It also decided that the identification and clarification process would continue on the basis of a compliance assessment scheme which would streamline the detection of infringements and their severity. Several proposals on compliance advice to the Commission were presented and discussed. Finally, the Committee adopted its programme of work for the next intersession. La quatorzième session du Comité d’application de la Commission générale des pêches pour la Méditerranée (CGPM) s’est tenue en ligne le 21 mai 2021. Le Comité a pris note des progrès accomplis dans la mise en œuvre des activités intersessions. S’agissant de l’application des décisions de la CGPM, le Comité a décidé de faire passer certaines parties contractantes et parties non contractantes coopérantes dans des catégories de conformité supérieures. Plus précisément, le Maroc, la Turquie et l’Union européenne sont passés dans la catégorie correspondant à une situation de pleine conformité et Israël est passé dans celle correspondant à une situation de conformité partielle. Le Comité a également décidé que le processus d’identification et d’éclaircissements se poursuivrait sur la base d’un programme d’évaluation de la conformité qui permettrait de rationaliser la détection des infractions et l’évaluation de leur gravité. Plusieurs propositions d’avis en matière d’application à soumettre à la Commission ont été présentées et analysées. Le Comité a adopté son programme de travail pour la prochaine période intersessions.

Book Description

This third edition of the State of Mediterranean and Black Sea Fisheries provides a comprehensive overview of the status of fisheries in the region, looking at their main features and trends, in order to better inform their management and better examine current and future challenges that they will face in the near future. The aim of this report is to produce a document that could provide useful analysis and direction for decision-making and future action. In this respect, this publication also represents a convenient source of information for the FAO Committee on Fisheries and offers a practical complement to the data provided in the State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture published by the FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Department. This volume includes seven chapters divided into two sections: a first part on the status and trends of different aspects of Mediterranean and Black Sea fisheries, including fleet, catches, socio-economic variables and bycatch, and a second part that focuses on the management of Mediterranean and Black Sea fisheries, including an overview on small-scale fisheries. This report is based to a large extent on the most up-to-date data available submitted by GFCM contracting and cooperating non-contracting parties, including information on stock status, national catches, fleet and socio-economic information up to 2018. It is also complemented with information from other sources.

Comparative Climate Change Litigation: Beyond the Usual Suspects

Book Description

This book is based on the acknowledgment that climate change is a multifaceted challenge that requires action on the part of all stakeholders, including civil society, and the notion that climate change is at a tipping point with urgent measures needed in the next decade. Against this background, civil society is turning its attention to the courts as a means to directly influence climate action, partly because of the global scepticism towards the progress of global climate action, despite the ongoing implementation of the Paris Agreement. Focusing on the individual, broadly representing civil society, the book offers fresh perspectives on climate change litigation. While most of the literature on climate change litigation examines the same specific jurisdictions, mostly common law countries (US and Australia in particular), this book also considers specific countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America with little or no climate change litigation. It explores the reasons for the lack of litigation and discusses what measures should or could be taken to change this situation and push forward climate action. Unlike other literature on the subject, this book analyses climate change litigation using a scenario-based methodology. Combining rigorous academic analysis with a practical policy-oriented focus, the book provides valuable insights for a wide range of stakeholders interested in climate change litigation. It appeals to civil society organisations around the world, international organisations and law firms interested in climate change litigation.

Book Description

Non-trial resolutions, often referred to as settlements, have been the predominant means of enforcing foreign bribery and other related offences since the entry into force of the OECD Anti-Bribery Convention 20 years ago. The last decade has seen a steady increase in the use of coordinated multi-jurisdictional non-trial resolutions, which have, to date, permitted the highest global amount of combined financial penalties in foreign bribery cases. This study is the first cross-country examination of the different types of resolutions that can be used to resolve foreign bribery cases.
