provides for the Republic of Korea and Australia to cooperate in taking measures for the management and protection of migratory birds and their habitat by providing a forum for the exchange of information, support for training activities and collaboration on migratory bird research and monitoring activities. Eight species listed under this agreement occur in Pulu Keeling National Park.
Bonn Convention
The Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals (Bonn Convention) aims to conserve terrestrial, marine and avian migratory species throughout their range. Parties to this convention work together to conserve migratory species and their habitat. Eleven species listed under this agreement occur in Pulu Keeling National Park.
Convention on Biological Diversity
The Convention's objectives are:
• the conservation of the world's biological diversity
• to promote the sustainable use of the components of biological diversity
  • to provide for the fair and equitable sharing of benefits from the utilisation of genetic resources, including providing appropriate access to genetic resources and the appropriate transfer of relevant technologies taking into account all rights over those resources and technologies, and by appropriate funding (UNEP 1994).
The EPBC Act is the primary legislative instrument for implementing the Convention on Biological Diversity in Australia.
Nagoya Protocol
In October 2010 the Conference of Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity adopted the Nagoya Protocol on Access to Genetic Resources and the Fair and Equitable Sharing of Benefits Arising from their Utilization. Australia signed the protocol in January 2012, and is committed to its full implementation and ratification.
The protocol establishes an internationally recognised framework for access to genetic resources and associated traditional knowledge for research activities and sharing the benefits from their use. Access to biological resources in Commonwealth areas such as the park is regulated under the EPBC Act and EPBC Regulations (see also Section 3.3, Research and monitoring).

Other relevant legislation
Fish Resource Management Act 1994 (WA)
Since 2002, the Western Australian Department of Fisheries has been responsible for the delivery of fisheries management services at the Cocos (Keeling) Islands on behalf of the Commonwealth Government, under a Service Delivery Arrangement. Fishing in the park is subject to the Fish Resource Management Act 1994 (WA) in so far as that Act is not inconsistent with the EPBC Act, EPBC Regulations and this management plan.
