This document contains the report of the FAO Workshop on Implementing the Agreement on Port State Measures to Prevent, Deter and Eliminate Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing (the Agreement) that was held at the Sheraton Hotel in Tirana, Albania, from 29 February to 4 March 2016. The workshop was attended by 42 participants from 16 coastal countries of the Mediterranean and Black Sea, in addition to representatives from one non-governmental organization (NGOs), one intergovernmental organization, one regional fishery management organizations (RFMO) and the European Commission. The workshop is organized to improve the understanding of the provisions of the PSMA, to highlight the policy, legal, institutional and operational requirements for effective implementation of the provisions, and to enhance the necessary skills of national officers in the implementation of port State measures. The workshop agenda included a number of items to inform the participants on the provisions and requirements of the PSMA, as well as the costs and benefits.
