New Zealand
- CCAMLR country
- Licensed fishing country - New Zealand is one of the CCAMLR
members continuing a 'legal' fishery for toothfish despite massive uncertainty
about the impact of illegal fishing on stocks of toothfish. The presence
of legal fish on the market provides a convenient cover for the pirates
to trade their illegal fish. In November 1999 it announced further exploratory
fishing.
- Surveillance - In 1999, New Zealand began surveillance for
pirates in Antarctica's Ross Sea region using Orion aircraft.
- Market country
