Accessing samples from broadbill swordfish from two sites within the WCPFC area was particularly problematic and was exacerbated by a poor fishing season in 2019. This resulted in samples for broadbill swordfish consisting of samples collected from the ETBF (2 years), Norfolk Island (1 year) and New...

Such a loss may occur if supplies to the local market are reduced and prices paid by consumers increase. This results in a transfer of benefits from...
