O atum faz parte da alimentação de base de numerosos países do mundo.
Tuna is a food staple in many countries of the world.
No plano mundial, o atum é objecto de um forte comércio representando uma importante fonte de divisas para países produtores, sejam eles países desenvolvidos ou em vias de desenvolvimento.
Tuna is the subject of intense trading at world level and represents a significant source of foreign currency for producer countries, both developed and developing.
Como existe uma forte e constante procura , algumas espécies de atuns são sobreexploradas, estando invariavelmente no meio de um fogo cruzado entre interesses comerciais e organizações ecologistas e grupos financeiros com interesses particulares neste domínio.
Given the strong and constant demand, some species of tuna are over-fished, and are caught in the crossfire between commercial interests, ecological organisations and financial groups with their own interests in this area .
Além de gerar um enorme fluxo comercial, com os correspondentes interesses económicos, a importante indústria de transformação dos tunídeos em conservas - principal indústria de transformação do pescado mundial - deu origem a uma frota específica, directamente associada ao sector nos diferentes Oceanos do mundo.
As well as generating an immense trade flow, with the corresponding economic interests, the large tuna canning industry - the world’s chief fish-processing industry - has led to the existence of a specific fleet directly linked to the sector in the various oceans of the world.
De referir que a Europa é o principal mercado mundial de conservas de atum, consumindo 530 mil toneladas todos os anos, das quais 280 mil são importadas.
It might be pointed out that Europe is the main world market for canned tuna, consuming 530 000 tonnes every year, 280 000 of which are imported.
As espécies destinadas à indústria de conservas , são fundamentalmente tropicais e capturadas nos Oceanos Índico, Pacífico e Atlântico Centro-Este.
The species destined for the canning industry are mainly tropical species and are caught in the Indian Ocean, the Pacific Ocean and the central-east Atlantic .
De entre estas espécies contam-se o atum albacora ( Thunnus albacares ) o gaiado ( Katsuwonus pelamis ) e patudo ( Thunnus obesus ).
These species include yellowfin tuna ( Thunnus albacares ), skipjack ( Katsuwonus pelamis ) and big-eye tuna ( Thunnus obesus ).
Um dos pesqueiros mais importantes para a captura destas espécies, é o manancial da zona do Leste do Pacífico, regulado pela CIAT (Comissão Interamericana do Atum Tropical).
One of the most important fisheries for catches of these species is the east Pacific region, regulated by the IATTC (Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission).
A CIAT, teve o seu início numa Convenção inicialmente constituída pela Costa Rica e Estados Unidos.
The IATTC has its origins in a Convention initially set up by Costa Rica and the United States.
Esta Convenção iniciou as suas funções em 1950, e, desde então, está aberta à adesão de Estados independentes que pesquem atum tropical ou outras espécies afins na zona do Acordo.
It came into operation in 1950, and since then it has been open for accession by other independent states fishing for tropical tuna or other related species in the area covered by the Convention.
Desde a década de 50, até aos nossos dias, vários foram os países que aderiram a esta Comissão.
A number of countries have joined this organisation between the 1950s and the present.
Até à data presente, ainda não foi possível à Comunidade Europeia aderir oficialmente ao CIAT .
Until now, it has not been possible for the European Community to adhere officially to the IATTC .
No entanto, e por força da Decisão 1999/405/CE de 10 de Junho de 1999, o Conselho decidiu autorizar o Reino de Espanha a aderir à Convenção , o que acabou por acontecer em 2003, em Antígua, na Guatemala.
However, by Decision 1999/405/EC of 10 June 1999 the Council decided to authorise the Kingdom of Spain to accede to the Convention , which it finally did in 2003 in Antigua, Guatemala.
A decisão previa que a Espanha participasse nas decisões da CIAT, em consonância com a posição da Comunidade e em estreita colaboração com a Comissão .
The decision foresaw that Spain would participate in IATTC decisions in line with the Community position and in close cooperation with the Commission .
Por conseguinte, a Comunidade Europeia aguarda a alteração dos Estatutos da CIAT, para que se possa tornar membro efectivo desta Convenção.
The European Community is awaiting amendments to the IATTC statutes to become an effective member of the Convention.
Os objectivos iniciais desta Convenção eram, aquando da sua entrada em vigor, fundamentalmente dois:
At the time of its entry into force, the Convention essentially had two initial objectives:
Estudar a biologia dos Atuns e espécies relacionadas da zona Leste do Pacífico, como forma de estimar os impactos das capturas e outros efeitos naturais dos stocks de atum.
To study the biology of tuna and related species in the east Pacific in order to assess the impact of catches and other natural factors on tuna stocks;
Com base no ponto anterior, fazer recomendações que tivessem como base medidas de conservação que permitissem manter os níveis de capturas de atuns em valores sustentáveis, sem ultrapassarem portanto a sustentabilidade do meio.
On the basis of the above, to make recommendations concerning conservation measures designed to keep tuna catches at sustainable levels, without over-fishing.
Em 1976, a CIAT ganhou maior responsabilidade com o “despertar mediático” do problema relacionado com a morte acidental de golfinhos, associados à pesca de atum com recurso à arte do cerco de retenida.
The IATTC acquired greater responsibility in 1976 with the increased media attention given to the issue of the accidental death of dolphins linked to purse-seine fishing for tuna.
Durante muitos anos, fundamentalmente décadas de 70 e 80, o “bycatch” de golfinhos, tartarugas e outros animais aquáticos, constitui um problema dramático para as pescarias de atum na zona Leste do Pacífico.
For many years, chiefly in the 1970s and 1980s, bycatches of dolphins, turtles and other aquatic animals was a dramatic issue for tuna fisheries in the east Pacific.
