    At its Fifth Session held at Lomé, Togo, in March 1977, the FAO Fishery Committee for the Eastern Central Atlantic (CECAF) requested FAO to organize four meetings within the framework of the Subcommittee on Management of Resources Within the Limits of National Jurisdiction, so that the coastal countries might establish programmes for the management of their resources (Resolution CECAF/V/2). Among the coastal pelagic stocks of the northern CECAF region, the sardinella, horse mackerel and mackerel were part of the resources to be considered. The CECAF Project called this meeting of the Working Group to evaluate the state of exploitation of these stocks and to recommend management measures. A special invitation was sent by the Government of Senegal to the Government of the USSR in order to secure the participation of Soviet scientists. The Working Group met at the Centre de recherches océanographiques de Dakar-Thiaroye (CRODT) under the Chairmanship of Mr. J. Chabanne. Messrs. J.A. Gulland, P. Fréon and M. Ansa-Emmim were elected Rapporteurs for the Meeting. The Session began with the introductory speeches of Mr. Chabanne, Mr. S. García1/ and Mr. Gulland, who welcomed the participants and underscored the importance of the subject under discussion, and the problems connected with a proper knowledge of the biology and dynamics of the species. Mr. Gulland stressed the value of exchanging data and the application of the results of the analyses for the elaboration of fisherie s management policy.

    A permanent FAO/CECAF Working Group composed of scientists from the coastal countries and from those countries or organizations playing an active role in demersal fisheries in Northwest Africa, was created by CECAF in 2000. The first meeting of Subgroup North was organized in Saly, Senegal, from 14 to 23 September 2004. The overall objective of the Group is to contribute to the improvement of the management of demersal resources in Northwest Africa through assessment of the state of stocks and fisheries to ensure the best sustainable use of the resources for the benefit of coastal countries. The study zone for the Working Group is the CECAF zone of the Central-East Atlantic Ocean between Cap Spartel and the south of Senegal. For reasons of heterogeneity, the species and stocks assessed by the Working Group were divided into four groups: hake, other demersal fish, shrimps and cephalopods. Un Groupe de travail permanent FAO/COPACE, composé de scientifiques des États côtiers et des pays ou organisations qui jouent un rôle actif dans les pêcheries démersales de l’Afrique nord-ouest a été créé par le COPACE en 2000. La première réunion du Sous-groupe Nord a été organisée à Saly, Sénégal, du 14 au 23 septembre 2004. L’objectif général du Groupe de travail est de contribuer à améliorer l’aménagement des ressources démersales en Afrique du Nord-Ouest par l’évaluation de l’état des stocks et des pêcheries afin d’assurer une meilleure utilisation de ces ressources pour le bénéfice des pays côtiers. La zone d’étude du Groupe de travail est la zone COPACE de l’océan Atlantique Centre-Est, entre Cap Spartel et le sud du Sénégal. En raison de l’hétérogénéité des espèces et des stocks, le Groupe de travail sur les démersaux a été divisé en quatre groupes: merlus, autres démersaux, crevettes et céphalopodes.
