| Question | To what extent are members of this commons user group able to exclude non-members (outsiders) from using this commons? |
| Select Options | 1 No exclusion, 2 Some exclusion, 3 Total exclusion |
| Unit | |
| Role | CommonsUser |
| Importance | Exclusion is needed in order to ensure that a commons is not over-used. Without exclusion, efforts of commons users to limit their own use of a commons may prove to be ineffective in preserving this commons if outsiders essentially act as free-riders on their efforts. |
| Definition | Exclusion means that members of a commons using actor group effectively prevent non-members for using a commons that they use. Total exclusion: Users are able to prevent the great majority to all incursion by outsiders No exclusion: Outsiders face no impediments from the user group in their attempts to use the commons. |

| Heard and McDonald Islands Marine Reserve | Governance | Australian Toothfish Fishers | Total exclusion (3) | The HIMI fishery operates via quota system, and as the end of this snapshot only four vessels (and two companies) hold quota to fish in the HIMI EEZ. If any others were fishing in the area (e.g, IUU) they would be reported and have to cease fishing immediately (they could be reported by a legal fishing vessel or by AFMA or the Australian Defense Force which actively surveys the area). Further, even though HIMI is within the jurisdiction of CCAMLR, other CCAMLR states cannot fish there (due to it being an AU EEZ). |

| Falkland Islands squid | Governance | Patagonian Squid Trawlers | Some exclusion (2) | While the fishery is heavily limited, fishermen do not limit the licenses. However, since these are large ships, they can determine who will or will not work for them. Also, since they are Falkland based, Falkland Islanders could theoretically ban some countries from merger agreements. FITQS quota can only be held by Falkland Islands companies, unless an exemption has been granted. The ITQ generates catch entitlement that can be fished by qualifying companies with a minimum 25.1% of shares owned by Falkland Islanders. This allows for the operation of joint ventures in the fishery. Catch entitlement may be traded on a seasonal or annual basis, whereas ITQ itself can be traded by outright sale and transfer (Harte & Barton, 2007). Coded medium because of this inter-annual transfer. Ownership of the total quota, however, is limited to 30% by any one company (Arkhipkin et al. 2013b). |
| New Zealand squid | Governance | New Zealand Arrow Squid Fishers | Some exclusion (2) | Quota sold by government. When giving up quota, must sell to government who then sells it to a buyer (not fisher to fisher transaction). However, some companies choose to exclusively employ New Zealanders. Since vessels must be flagged by New Zealand, this company can choose which countries to partner with in joint ventures, thus some exclusion. |
