vThe IPOA-IUU is voluntary. However, like the Code of Conduct, certain parts ofthe IPOA-IUU are based on relevant rules of international law, as reflected in the1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea and other pertinentinstruments. The IPOA-IUU also contains provisions that may be, or havealready been, given binding effect by means of other legal instruments, includingglobal, regional and subregional instruments.In short, these Guidelines review the measures to prevent, deter and eliminateIUU fishing that are contained in the IPOA-IUU and provide advice as to howthose measures may be best put into effect. The guidelines also provide adviceon the possible organization and content of national plans of action forimplementation of the IPOA-IUU, as well as suggestions for reporting to FAOon implementation of the IPOA-IUU.
