      2.1     Issues for the present
      2.1.1     Fishing activities

      Review and evaluate reports on past fishing activities, including information on the composition of the catch, analyses of catch and effort data, descriptions of the fishery, green weight issue, information on the behaviour of fishing vessels and economics of the fishery. Review and evaluate krill fishery notifications (CM 21-03).

      2.1.3     Krill biology, ecology and management

      Review relevant information and submissions on krill demography, biology, ecology etc. Review the influence of recruitment variability on the calculation of precautionary yield for krill, any new information on B0. Discussions on the stock structure of krill populations, top-down and bottom-up forcing in the krill-centric ecosystem, observed trends, etc.

      2.1.4     Role of fish in the Ross Sea ecosystem

      This agenda takes up the issues which WG-EMM would like to discuss under what we called ‘Fish-based ecosystem interactions’ in the past. A broader, rather than region-specific, discussions on role of fish in the ecosystem aiming to allow a wider participation to the discussion in the working group.

      2.2     Issues for the future
      2.2.1     Feedback management strategy

      Primarily undertake the second two components of work to develop a feedback management strategy for the krill fishery (SC-CAMLR-XXX, paragraphs 3.33 and 3.34):

      • review of spatial and temporal structure in the ecosystem in which the current Area 48 fishery operates and consideration of the implications for monitoring and management
      • development of agreed decision-making mechanisms for the candidate feedback management approaches, including decision rules which identify how fishing strategies and/or monitoring are to be adjusted on the basis of the indicators.

      Discuss the ways to achieve a wider participation to the discussion on feedback management.

      7     Adoption of the report and close of the meeting

      As at past meetings of the WG-EMM, rapporteurs will draft sections of the report. These sections will first be reviewed by the Convener and parties with strong interest in the topic and then submitted to the Secretariat for formatting, editing, and circulation for reading and mark-up by attendees. Proposed changes to the draft report must be made in consultation with the rapporteurs, who will inform the co-conveners and then provide the appropriate changes to the Secretariat. The report will be interactively adopted in plenary, using a data projector and support from the Secretariat.
