Part 12A      Area of the Western Skipjack Fishery

Division 1       Sub-area 1

                That part of the AFZ that is within the area bounded by a notional line:

                (a)    beginning at the intersection of the western coastline of Australia with the parallel of latitude 34° south; and

               (b)    running:

                          (i)    from there west along that parallel to the outer limit of the AFZ; and

                         (ii)    from there generally southerly and easterly along that outer limit to its intersection with the meridian of longitude 141° east; and

                        (iii)    from there north along that meridian to its first intersection with the southern coastline of Australia; and

                        (iv)    from there generally westerly along that coastline to the point where the line began.

Division 2       Sub-area 2

                That part of the AFZ that is within the area bounded by a notional line:

                (a)    beginning at the intersection of the northern coastline of Australia with the meridian of longitude 142° 30 ¢ east; and

               (b)    running:

                          (i)    from there north along that meridian to the outer limit of the AFZ; and

                         (ii)    from there generally westerly and southerly along that outer limit to its intersection with the parallel of latitude 34° south; and

                        (iii)    from there east along that parallel to its intersection with the western coastline of Australia; and

                        (iv)    from there generally northerly and easterly to the point where the line began.

Division 3       Sub-area 3

                Those parts of the AFZ:

                (a)    surrounding Christmas Island and the Cocos (Keeling) Islands; and

               (b)    extending, from a notional line every point of which is 12 nautical miles from the Australian territorial sea baseline, toward the outer limit of the AFZ.
