Abstract

Even as New Zealand grabbed international media headlines for good fisheries management practices, it was also exposed for employing forced labour on board foreign-flagged fishing vessels in its exclusive economic zone (EEZ). Until very recently, foreign charter vessels (FCVs)—all above 30 m registered length—accounted for over half the marine fish catch from the New Zealand EEZ and nearly 50 per cent of the value of total seafood exports.
