IUU ? shing, the elements of which are discussed in detail further below in this Part, hinders the sustainable management of marine ? sheries world wide. Southern Ocean ? sheries and in particular the Patagonian Tooth? sh, have been targeted by IUU ? shers. The text examines the response to the persistent problem of IUU ? shing in 1 the Southern Ocean, by CCAMLR, as the appropriate RFMO, and Australia, a State with vested interests in the Southern Ocean by virtue of the Heard and McDonald Islands’ EEZ. This examination represents original work not only in the context of 2 Southern Ocean ? sheries but in the consideration of the linkages between regional and national measures to deter IUU ? shing. Faced with continued ? ag State inaction, both the CCAMLR Commission and Australia have identi? ed and applied a number of measures to deter IUU ? shing. These measures are examined in Parts 4 and 5 respectively. Indeed, the lack of ? ag State enforcement and the development and persistence of IUU ? shing are inextricably linked, a fact that will be pursued in depth in Part 2 along with the other factors identi? ed as contributing to the development of IUU ? shing.

<P>Overfishing threatens the viability of high seas living resources. Furthermore, controls to prevent overfishing are inadequate. Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated (IUU) fishing is a product of overfishing and affects all marine fisheries. Southern Ocean fisheries have been particularly targeted by IUU fishing. The efforts of the Convention for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources Commission and the Australian government to adopt complementary measures to deter IUU fishing in the Southern Ocean form the basis of this study, although the examination is conducted following a comprehensive review of the legal and other factors contributing to the development of IUU fishing as well as the applicable international law.</P>

<P>The author concludes that in the absence of flag State control, alternative measures and strategies have proved to be effective in influencing the behaviour of IUU fishing vessels. By improving coastal State surveillance, enhancing regional cooperation, imposing port and market State controls, establishing IUU vessel databases and vigorously prosecuting offenders, Regional Fisheries Management Organisations and coastal States can jointly increase the risk of conducting IUU fishing activities. At the same time financial returns can be diminished so that engaging in IUU fishing becomes economically unattractive. It is concluded that the application of a combination of these measures is required in order to achieve a degree of success in deterring IUU operators.</P>
