Abstract

Farquharson provides a commentary on Commander Robin Warner, RAN's paper about the Role of Naval Forces in Protecting Fishing Zones in Australia and New Zealand, as part of Business Session 4. Farquharson focuses in on certain issues raised in the draft of that paper, and in doing so restricts his discussion to issues relevant to the position in Australia but not New Zealand.
