It was attended by delegations from 80 Members of FAO and by observers. The Consultation approved (i) a draft International Plan of Action for Reducing Incidental Catch of Seabirds in Longline Fisheries; (ii) a draft International Plan of Action for the Conservation and Management of Sharks; and, (iii) a draft International [Guidelines] [Plan of Action] for the Management of Fishing Capacity. The Consultation discussed at length the need to take urgent action to curb the growing problems of flags of convenience and pirate fishing. Furthermore it recommended that priority be given by FAO Members to consider accepting the Agreement to Promote Compliance with International Conservation and Management Measures by Fishing Vessels on the High Seas (Compliance agreement). -

At the end of its meeting it adopted this report. The meeting discussed: Issues related to the feasibility and practicability of develop ing globally applicable, non-discriminatory technical guidelines for eco-labelling of products from marine capture fisheries; possible contents and format of technical guidelines on eco-labelling of products from marine capture fisheries and procedure for the elaboration of technical guidelines. During the analysis and discussions on the subject no agreement was reached regarding the practicability and feasibility of FAO drafting technical guidelines for eco-labelling for marine fisheries produc ts. However, there was consensus that if an agreement was eventually reached on the feasibility of elaborating guidelines for eco-labelling this should be consistent with the Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries and, in addition, should consider inter alia a number of principles listed in the Report (see paragraph 11). It was stressed that, if so decided by COFI, the development of technical guidelines should take into account and be consistent with on-going related work by other inter-gove rnmental organizations, in particular the World Trade Organization (WTO). It was further mentioned to take into account the work of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the procedures adopted by the Codex Alimentarius Commission as well as other relevant experiences in the subject. The Technical Consultation agreed that, if COFI decided that FAO should prepare technical guidelines, they should be voluntary and the process of drafting the Code of Conduct for Responsible Fi sheries should be followed. -

Tokio, Japón, 25-27 de marzo de 1998. 1999El Grupo Técnico de Trabajo (GTT) de la FAO sobre la Reducción de las Capturas Incidentales de Aves Marinas en la Pesca con Palangre revisó tres documentos de antecedentes elaborados para la reunión en los que se describe el esfuerzo y la tecnología de pesca con palangre, la interacción de las aves marinas durante la operación de pesca y cómo la captura incidental de aves marinas puede ser reducida aplicando varias medidas de mitigación. Fue acordado que el contenido de estos documentos debería ser compilado en una publicación que será utilizada como material de referencia para elaborar Directrices Técnicas y un Plan de Acción Internacional. El GTT también elaboró un borrador de Directrices y un Plan de Acción. Las Directrices son propuestas para que contengan una lista de medidas de mitigación, las cuales están actualmente en uso o bajo ampliación, así como también la descripción de cómo la información acerca de las medidas de mitigación podría ser mejor diseminada en la pesca, la i ndustria y otras partes involucradas. En cuanto al Plan de Acción, el borrador preparado por el GTT debería ser visto como un primer borrador para ser ampliado en un proceso directivo para la Consulta de la FAO que se celebraría en octubre de 1998.
