A JAC fisheries intelligence report that examines the activities and AIS reporting patterns of the squid vessel LU RONG YUAN YU 715. The vessel had been transmitting simultaneously on the same two MMSIs, and analysis of photographs taken in 2022, confirmed that the vessel had been displaying and reporting a different name when in the Atlantic squid grounds (FU YUAN YU 715).

A JAC fisheries intelligence report that examines the activities and identities of vessel/s that have transmitted on AIS using an unofficial MMSI that is not associated with any flag State (MMSI 150402949). This includes strong indications that during 2020, MMSI 150402949 was transmitting from a vessel using the name LU RONG YUAN YU 197 that was IUU listed by NPFC in 2021.

A training tool on industrial fishing vessel inspections to assist in building knowledge in personnel who may play an operational role in fisheries monitoring, control, and surveillance (MCS), as well as for use by broader interested stakeholders.

This document contains the report of the Sixth Global Fisheries Enforcement Training Workshop (GFETW), which was convened in Bangkok, Thailand from 18 to 22 February 2019. The Workshop was organised by the IIMCS Network and the Department of Fisheries, Thailand. The 6th GFETW was sponsored by Fisheries and Oceans Canada, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, the Directorate of Fisheries of Norway, the United States National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and The Pew Charitable Trusts.

The theme of the 2019 GFETW was Closing the Net: Global cooperation between flag, coastal, port and market States for effective enforcement of international and domestic law.

This report contains the proceedings of the IMCS Network's first ever virtual GFETW, which took place online on 13–14 July 2021. The overall theme of the virtual GFETW was “Illuminating the unknowns – Global cooperation to eliminate the “U’s” from Illegal, Unreported, and Unregulated (IUU) fishing”. The GFETW focused on an interactive format highlighting three interactive panel discussions on emerging MCS areas of interest or challenges. The event also included MCS papers, presentations, and short videos relevant to one of the following four GFETW themes: cooperation and partnerships, risk assessment and analysis, technology as an enabler, and transparency.

The TCN convened its 3rd Workshop in Bangkok, Thailand, from 22 to 24 February 2019. The Workshop focused on procedures to assess compliance in tuna RFMOs and gathered, among others, the officers responsible for compliance of the five tuna RFMOs and all Chairs of the Compliance Committees of these RFMOs.

An introductory guide to (also known as 'reefers' or 'carriers') vessels to support MCS officers undertaking carrier vessel inspections. While this is a standalone tool focussed on carrier vessels, it has been developed as part of series of similar introductory guides on other major industrial fishing methods and related operations, as well as complementary material on fishing vessel inspection considerations. This guide includes how to recognize carrier vessels, how they operate and operational MCS considerations and the crucial role carrier vessel play in transshipment.
