The second session of the Scientific Committee of the South West Indian Ocean Commission was attended by delegates from France, Kenya, Madagascar, Mauritius, Mozambique, Seychelles, Somalia, South Africa, the United Republic of Tanzania and Yemen. Representatives of the Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC), the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida), the South West Indian Ocean Fisheries Project (SWIOFP), the World Wildlife Fund for Nature (WWF) and the Western Indian Ocean Marine Scientists Association (WIOMSA) also attended as observers. The Scientific Committee examined the status of fisheries resources and considered the report of the Working Party on Fisheries Data and Statistics. It discussed recent fishery assessments, preparation of the next Conference on the contribution of fisheries development to the Millennium Development Goals, a workshop on interactions between sea turtles and shrimp fisheries, and informal working groups to address priority areas. It made recommendations for the consideration of the third session of the Commission. The next session will take place in Mozambique or alternatively in Madagascar in 2008.
