The Albatross and Petrel Agreement’s Population and Conservation Status Working Group (PaCSWG4), is holding its fourth meeting this week in Wellington, New Zealand. The two days of discussions follow a three-day meeting of a sister ACAP Working Group on seabird bycatch (SBWG8). The deliberations of both groups will be reported to the 10th Meeting of the ACAP Advisory Committee (AC10) next week.
