Draft Recommendation by ICCAT on protecting the health and safety of observers in CPC observer programs
submitted by United States, the United Kingdom, Morocco, Senegal, and Gabon
notes: This proposal would require that CPCs submit descriptions of their observer safety emergency protocols, described in paragraph 7, as a part of their Annual Reports. This proposal also would require, subject to national laws on confidentiality and privacy, that CPCs submit to the Executive Secretary, any reports on observer incidents involving serious injury, death, or in the event of an observer that is missing or presumed fallen overboard, including any corrective action taken by the flag CPC.
