"The Convention on Future Multilateral Cooperation in the Northwest Atlantic Fisheries was signed on 24 October 1978 in Ottawa and came into force on 1 January 1979.
The main aim of the Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (NAFO) since then is to engage in consultation and cooperation in order to achieve maximum use of fishery resources in the conservation area, to preserve and manage those resources properly and to promote new thinking about encouraging international cooperation for improving sustainable management of marine resources on the high seas.
At the Annual NAFO Meetings in 2007 and 2008, the contracting parties to the convention adopted the ‘Amendment to the Convention on Future Multilateral Cooperation in the Northwest Atlantic Fisheries’. This amendment effects a significant change to the convention, bringing it more into line with other regional conventions and international instruments and taking modern practices in fisheries management into account. Therefore, this amendment adds significantly to the effectiveness of the organisation’s structure."@en1
