    Abstract

    This paper sets out the background and a framework to support the first 10-year review of the Ross Sea region Marine Protected Area (Conservation Measure 91-05). It proposes deliverables and a timeline for discussion to assist the Commission’s review, supported by the Scientific Committee.

    Unless agreed otherwise, the Commission will review the RSrMPA at its annual meeting in 2027. Reports and research to support the review will be completed in 2026 and 2027. The purpose of this paper is to facilitate coordination on and input to the review by Members.
