The International Consultations on the Proposed South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation have concluded with the adoption of the Convention on the Conservation and Management of the High Seas Fishery Resources of the South Pacific Ocean (the Convention) in Auckland, New Zealand on 14 November 2009. 

When the Convention enters into force, the gap that exists in the international conservation and management of non-highly migratory fisheries and protection of biodiversity in the marine environment extending from the most eastern part of the South Indian Ocean through the Pacific towards the Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZs) of South America will be closed.
