    Résumé

    When considering establishment of MPAs, a set of criteria to properly evaluate proposals is necessary and essential to streamline and facilitate examinations.  On the basis of the discussions at the last Commission meeting, Japan is planning to propose a resolution “Standardized Procedure to Establish CCAMLR MPAs in accordance with the Conservation Measure 91-04”, hoping to contribute to constructive discussions thereon at the Commission meeting in 2014, in order for CCAMLR’s efficient and effective achievements in its leading work towards proper establishment of MPAs on the high seas.

    We are submitting this paper to the WG-EMM meeting, which has competence on area management including MPA matters, in order to inform the CCAMLR members of our intention and expect to have initial inputs from the members to start dialogue.
