Book (series)Technical Consultation on Improving Information on the Status and Trends of Capture Fisheries / Consultation technique sur l'amélioration de l'information concernant la situation et les tendances des pêches de capture / Consulta técnica sobre la introducción de las mejoras en la información acerca de la situación y las tendencias de la pesca de captura 2002The Technical Consultation on Improving Information on the Status and Trends of Capture Fisheries (Rome, Italy, 25-28 March 2002) considered the issue in terms of general perspectives, the required actions and mechanisms for promotion and implementation, the nature of the instrument to be used and consideration of a proposal for a Strategy. The Technical Consultation expressed the view that the issue of improving information on the status and trends of capture fisheries should have a high priori ty with regard to implementation of the Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries. It agreed that a Strategy is an appropriate instrument to address the issue because it is a document that sets forth objectives, policies, programmes, actions and decisions that define who will do what and why. It felt that a Strategy could be used as a foundation for various policy instruments, and that it clearly establishes an ongoing commitment at national, regional and global levels. The Technical Consultatio n approved a draft Strategy for Improving Information on Status and Trends of Capture Fisheries and requested that this report and the draft Strategy be presented to the Twenty-fifth Session of the Committee on Fisheries. It also recognized that it would be necessary for FAO and FAO Members to elaborate programmes to implement the Strategy and suggested that COFI identify approaches to ensure the effective implementation of this Strategy.
