 Recommends Senate advice and consent to ratification of a treaty between
 the U.S. and New Zealand, signed Dec. 2, 1980, at Tokelau, to establish the
 maritime boundary between American Samoa and Tokelau, resolve the status of
 three Tokelauan islands, and confirm U.S. sovereignty over Swains Island.
   Boundary definition eliminates jurisdictional uncertainty resulting from
 overlapping 200-mile fishery resources zones established by treaty
 participants.
