Abstract

Discusses the case of the dispute between Australia and New Zealand on one side and Japan on the other regarding the conservation and management of southern blue fin tuna. The case provides an important example of uncomfortable overlap between United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) and regional fisheries agreement dispute settlement provisions.
