Book (series)Technical reportReport of the Expert Consultation on the Development of International Guidelines for Ecolabelling of Fish and Fishery Products from Inland Capture Fisheries. Rome, 23-26 May 2006 2006The twenty-sixth session of the Committee on Fisheries (Rome, 7–11 March 2005) recommended that FAO prepare international guidelines on the ecolabelling of fish and fishery products from inland fisheries. The Expert Consultation was convened by FAO to advise on this task. The Expert Consultation took as its main working document the Guidelines for the Ecolabelling of Fish and Fishery Products from Marine Capture Fisheries adopted by the twenty-sixth session of the Committee on Fisherie s and published by FAO in 2005. The Consultation made various additions and amendments to this document for it to be suitable for inland capture fisheries. Many of these amendments derived from including culture-based and enhanced fisheries into the definition of inland capture fisheries. Amendments concerned mostly the sections addressing management systems, “stocks under consideration”, ecosystem considerations and methodological aspects. Aquaculture was excluded from the scope of th e guidelines. The Expert Consultation recognized that most of the provisions on procedural and institutional aspects of standard setting, accreditation and certification applied equally to both marine and inland capture fisheries. However, there were some instances where the specific characteristics of inland capture fisheries including culture-based and enhanced fisheries needed to be reflected. Cases in point were the addition of hatchery managers among the interested parties in stan dard setting or the inclusion of the production of stocking material in the certification of a fishery.
