The scale of fishing effort in some of these unregulated fisheries globally is staggering. Couldn’t agree with SIF more.

Another report highlighting the impact of unregulated fisheries and the risk they pose to sustainability. Thank you TMT and WWF EU - we need to start closing these gaps.

Today Government and people of #tristandacunha are proud to announce creation of the Tristan da Cunha Marine Protection Zone. Almost 700,00km2 will join UK #BlueBelt of marine protection, becoming the largest no-take zone in the Atlantic and the fourth largest on the planet.

Great to see this - congratulations!

Congratulations TMT great report highlighting a real challenge in fighting #iuu fishing. Follow the money and hopefully help stop the exploitation.

🇪🇺EU Maritime & Fish Commissioner Sinkevičius: European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is clear on her zero tolerance approach on #IUUfishing. I have a clear political mandate and personal will. The EU IUU Regulation is a transparent, non-discriminatory and efficient system.

.@Pierre_Ka, PECH Committee Press Chair: Fighting #IUUfishing is an example of good cooperation between decision makers, industry&NGOs. It is the cornerstone of fisheries policy & ocean governance. The 🇪🇺 IUU Reg has been a significant success. We should continue to show zero tolerance.

It is so important we make headway here. It is a huge issue

The EU IUU Coalition is as strong as its parts. Dr. Antonia Leroy, Marta M Martin and Ocean_Vanya are amongst those, together with many more. Fantastic work ladies and thank you for your professionalism, support and friendship throughout the past few years since joining the team!

Congratulations on 10 years guiding the fight against environmental crimes. You have had some great successes fighting #IUUfishing and highlight the importance of cooperation.

How can international leaders limit illegal, unreported, and unregulated fish from entering the seafood supply chain? Develop #transshipment guidelines that incorporate these key elements. pew.org/3cDT4FA #IUU #COFI34

The gavel went down! We have a historic @WTO agreement to end subsidies that drive overfishing #StopFundingOverfishing Bravo!

The new WTO deal will help “[curb] the subsidies that drive overfishing" and begin to "help restore the health of fisheries and the communities that rely on them.” Our Isabel Jarrett on the impact of the agreement that will help #StopFundingOverfishing. pew.org/3b4x48g

NGOs at Fisheries & Aquaculture #COFI35 are united in their anti-#IUUfishing asks: FAO & PSMA's key role and need for greater #transparency & info exchange (GIES & Global Record). FAO,International Labour Organization & International Maritime Organization should continue to cooperate to this effect and on addressing high mortality & fisher safety.

Our target date of 11 October 2022 to ratify the Cape Town Agreement is just around the corner! The time is now.
