When poorly selective fishing occurs, it leads to the incidental catch of fish and invertebrates, part of which may consist of juveniles of ecologically important and/or economically valuable species.

Conversely, invertebrates remain at near record levels of abundance.

Bottom seine nets are generally also regarded as having low impact on benthic invertebrates.

In 2010, New Zealand submitted 11 papers to the CCAMLR Scientific Committee and its working groups on VMEs, including work on developing an impact assessment methodology, creating a glossary of terms and conceptual framework to assess VME impacts and producing a benthic invertebrate taxa identification guide, all of which were adopted by CCAMLR.

A comprehensive evaluation of the current state of the resources and their associated invertebrate communities could thus not be made.

NEAFC also reported establishing large MPAs based on the general considerations of creating no take zones to preserve, protect and/or facilitate the restoration of resources and associated invertebrate communities, and to protect representative VMEs against potentially significant adverse impacts.

One of the P-3 officers would focus on researching best practices for use in the articulation of workflows and detailed procedures and instructions that support IPSAS-compliant accounting and reporting, including the development of guidelines supporting the recording of segment information for peacekeeping operations, the recording of goods and services provided in kind, and the recording and monitoring of provisions and contingent liabilities in peacekeeping operations.
