arisen from the point of view of competence (claims of certain NEAFC states with
extended CSs), rather than the perspective of responsibility for the damage or risk of
damage (potential responsibility of the competent authority to regulate activity in the
high seas, i.e. the RFMOs and/or flag state of the fishing vessel). Finally, the third
reason is the uncertainty arising from extended CSs that have been claimed but not
yet established (by the Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf) and/or
delimited (by the concerned states). Such situations have resulted in different models
of MPAs in the North East Atlantic: whilst in some cases, the state claiming an
extended CS assumes responsibility for the protection, in others, the claim of an
extended CS by a state has led to a distinction between two different MPAs so as to
omit the claimed extended CS.
