    Résumé

    The 2014/15 CCAMLR fishing season has seen significant progress in the fight to combat Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated (IUU) fishing by vessels on the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) Non-Contracting Party (NCP) IUU vessel list. This paper outlines the recent actions taken by Australia and its near neighbours, including through the Regional Plan of Action to Promote Responsible Fishing Practices Including Combatting IUU Fishing (RPOA-IUU) and notes that international cooperation has been instrumental in the successes seen in 2014/15.
