No results found.The goals of the Expert Consultation were to advise FAO on the development and implementation of a global record of fishing vessels and to respond to the request from FAO’s Committee on Fisheries to further develop the concept as described in the feasibility study. A comprehensive global record, a potential additional tool to combat illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing, is envisioned as a global database gathering data from many sources in one location. A major obstacle facing fisheries e nforcement bodies is the lack of access to information on vessel identification, ownership and control. Currently, there is no single source containing basic information about fishing vessels of all sizes. The experts expressed a sense of urgency about the need for this tool. They also believed that a global record should be extensive in scope. They recommended interim activities to raise awareness about the global record and further develop some technical issues in advance of the Committee on Fisheries to be held in 2009. -
