Abstract

Australia has taken significant steps recently towards defining the extent of its maritime jurisdiction. These include the conclusion of a maritime boundary treaty with New Zealand, the submission of a claim to extended continental shelf rights to the United Nations Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf and a number of agreements relating to jurisdictional rights and resource sharing in the Timor Sea. This article provides an overview of Australian claims to maritime jurisdiction and then examines recent developments.
