projects, which are being implemented by the South Pacific Forum
Secretariat, South Pacific Forum Fisheries Agency, South Pacific Regional
Environment Programme, and University of the South Pacific. LGL will screen
proposals that are received before the deadline and submit at least three of
the best to the implementing agency, where the consultant will be selected.
Project Background
The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea was signed by 119 states
in Montego Bay, Jamaica, on 10 December 1982. As at 11 November 1999, a
total of 132 states have ratified the Convention. Guyana deposited the 60th
instrument of ratification on 16 November 1993 which activated the period
for entry into force of the Convention. The Convention entered into force on
16 November 1994, 12 months after the deposit of Guyana's instrument. Cook
Islands ratified the Convention on 5 October 1999.
The Agreement for the Implementation of the provisions of the United Nations
Convention on the Law of the Sea of 10 December 1982 relating to the
Conservation and Management of the Straddling Fish Stocks and Highly
Migratory Fish Stocks was opened for signature on 4 December 1995 in New
York, USA. As at April 2000, there have been 59 signatories and 26
ratification's. Cook Islands acceded to the Implementing Agreement on 1
April 1999.
Despite the failure to achieve consensus on the whole Convention, the
fishery provisions remained largely unchanged since the time of the First
Informal Single Negotiating Text in 1975. Central to these provisions is the
concept of coastal state jurisdiction over all the natural resources whether
living or non-living within the exclusive economic zone extending beyond the
territorial sea up to a distance of 200 nautical miles and the related
responsibilities of the coastal state for fisheries management within that
zone. Since the adoption of the Convention and entry into force, a large
number of these coastal states have declared EEZs of up to 200 nautical
miles in their national legislation.
For the island states of the South Pacific region, the impact of the
extension of jurisdiction has been particularly beneficial from the
perspective of marine resources that have come under their national
jurisdiction. However, the extension of jurisdiction has naturally
introduced new responsibilities and obligations in fisheries conservation,
management and control over the foreign fishing operations of distant water
fishing nations in their zones. In an effort to tackle these duties, many of
the countries of the South Pacific have, over the past ten years,
endeavoured to introduce new fisheries legislation.
In FFA's Corporate Plan of 1998 - 2000, the following is one of the
objectives of the Legal Services Division -

"To enhance the ability of member countries to manage their living marine
resources in accordance with the framework of the 1982 United Nations
Convention on the Law of the Sea (LOSC)".


In achieving this objective, the following strategies are, inter alia, to be
utilised:
1. Advise and assist member governments in the periodic review of their
national fisheries and maritime legislation with a view to their greater
harmonisation;
2. Provide advice to member countries on legal, policy and management issues
arising from the exploitation of the fisheries resources of the region; and
3. Co-ordination of regional initiatives in the development of the Law of
the Sea using legal consultations, workshops, seminars, fellowships and
other training opportunities.
This project falls squarely within FFA's Work Programme and the provision of
assistance to the Government of Cook Islands is therefore suitably justified.
The LOSC contains comprehensive provisions relating to pollution of the
marine environment, the development and transfer of marine technology,
marine scientific research and the law relating to uses of the seabed and
mineral deposits. FFA is not equipped to deal fully with these issues and,
therefore, it is expected that there will be close co-operation in the
implementation of Phases 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the project with other regional
organisations active in these areas such as SOPAC, SPREP and SPC.
Services Required
The purpose of this project is to implement a request by the Government of
Cook Islands for legal assistance in the review of their domestic
legislation for implementation of the relevant provisions of the 1982 United
Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (LOSC) and the incorporation of the
provisions of the United Nations Agreement for the Implementation of the
provisions of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea of 10
December 1982 relating to the Conservation and Management of Straddling Fish
Stocks and Highly Migratory Fish Stocks (UNIA) into domestic legislation.
The request falls within the objectives of FFA's Legal Services Programme as
set out in the FFA Corporate Plan 1998 - 2000 and within the approved work
programme.
In order to ensure that the outcome of this project meets the requirements
of the Government of Cook Islands and to ensure full participation and
consultation by legal officials in-country, it is proposed that this project
will be implemented by FFA in consultation with an officer of the Government
of Cook Islands. It is proposed that the project be implemented in 4
distinct phases: -
Phase 1: Identify those parts of LOSC and UNIA which have particular
relevance to the circumstances of Cook Islands and assess the implications
of LOSC and UNIA for domestic law and policy, with particular reference to
marine fisheries;
Phase 2: Based on the outcomes of Phase 1, review all relevant existing Cook
Islands legislation with a view to identifying inconsistencies and omissions
with respect to LOSC and UNIA. Where appropriate, recommend modifications,
consistent with emerging regional and international standards;
Phase 3: Describe measures which would need to be taken consistent with
their duties and obligations under both UN agreements, including identifying
legislative provisions not now in place;
Phase 4: Prepare a final report for the Government of Cook Islands.
Phases 1, 2 and 3 will be implemented by consultants. In Phase 4, the output
from Phases 1, 2, and 3 will be collated into a final report by FFA's Legal
Service Division working in consultation with the appropriate officer of the
Government of Cook Islands. The final report will pay particular attention
to identifying the key recommendations from Phases 1, 2 and 3.

Cook Islands, and or FFA Headquarters (Solomon Islands).
