Descripción
The Advisory Committee on Fisheries Research (ACFR) held its second session in Rome from 6-9 December 1999. The Committee examined its work since the first session, undertook an appraisal of FAO's fisheries research-related programmes and elaborated the Committee's work for the intersessional period (1999-2000). The Committee noted the successful intersessional period in particular, the results of the Meeting of FAO and non-FAO regional fishery bodies and arrangements and the conduct of and prep aration of reports by the three Working Parties instructed at the first session. The Committee acknowledged that the development of and adoption of the three International Plans of Action (IPOA) on the Management of Fishing Capacity, the Conservation and Management of Sharks and the Reduction of Incidental Catch of Seabirds in Longline Fisheries at the twenty-third Session of the Committee on Fisheries (COFI), was a significant way to promote collaborative action on important issues, and commend ed the positive role that international scientific consultation and collaboration had played in the development of these IPOAs.
