    The Ad Hoc Meeting of Experts on the External Evaluation of the General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM) Committee on Aquaculture (CAQ) and its Networks was held in Rome, Italy, from 29 to 30 March 2004. The meeting was attended by six experts from CAQ in their personal capacity and by the consultant recruited for undertaking the evaluation. Initially only an external evaluation of the SIPAM network (Information System for the Promotion of Aquaculture in the Mediterran ean) was recommended at the third session of the Committee and endorsed by the Commission at its twenty-seventh session. Subsequently, the call for a full external evaluation of CAQ, including all of its Networks, since its inception was requested by the Commission at its twenty-eight session in view of the forthcoming entry into force of the GFCM autonomous budget. On the basis of the report of the consultant, the Meeting of Experts reviewed and summarized major achievements of CAQ and its networks. It identified strengths and weaknesses of its modus operandi and provided recommendations towards addressing the limitations faced by the Committee over recent years. In support of a sustainable development of the Mediterranean aquaculture sector and in the context of the autonomous budget, the Meeting concurred that the size and composition of an expanded GFCM Secretariat would have the desirable influence on the functioning of the CAQ and its networks.

    The ad hoc Meeting of Experts on the Independent Appraisal of the Achievements of the Scientific Advisory Committee (SAC) of the GFCM was held in Rome, Italy, from 27 to 28 August 2003. The meeting was attended by five experts from SAC in their personal capacity and by a specialized consultant. The appraisal stemmed from an initial suggestion from CopeMed that it would be opportune, in the context of the forthcoming entry into force of the GFCM Autonomous budget, to appraise the work of SAC sinc e its inception. This was supported by the Second Coordinating Meeting of the SAC Sub-Committees. At its Sixth Session in 2003, SAC further welcomed the offer made by the Secretariat to undertake an external evaluation of its achievements (19992003). On the basis of the report of the consultant, the Meeting of Experts reviewed and summarized major achievements of SAC and identified strengths and weaknesses of its process. The meeting further suggested considering a number of preliminary options for improving the efficiency of the Committee, placing emphasis on a task-oriented advisory process driven by GFCM management objectives and an enhanced capacity to formulate management advice, based on multispecies assessments and using multidisciplinary reference points, compliant with an ecosystem approach to fisheries.
