Commission (WCPFC) has responsibility for management of highly migratory species in the westernand central Pacific, there is no Regional Fisheries Management Organization with responsibilityfor management and coordination of fisheries issues that brings together all the countries of theAsia-Pacific region. Since many (if not most) stocks are shared between countries of the region,because national fisheries management practices and capabilities are often not fully effective andbecause of the major issue of IUU fishing in the region, the establishment of such a managementbody would likely bring significant benefits.6.
