Dates and proposed timetable were agreed.
Mr Pintér further informed the Session that the Hungarian authorities had established a national Organizing Committee, chaired by Mr L. Varadi. He invited FAO to proceed with the negotiation of the Memorandum of Responsibilities.
It was proposed to invite, in addition to institutions listed for the Twentieth Session, also NGOs dealing with social and economic issues, as well as selected river basin management organizations.
2. Preparation for the Symposium
Mr M. Sipponen had prepared a listing of the 50 titles so far proposed by potential participants in the Symposium, according to subject areas. Proposals were received from Belgium, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Norway, Portugal, Russia, Slovakia, Switzerland. Ms Bninska informed the meeting, that proposals from Poland were forthcoming as well.
It was agreed to sub-divide the Symposium into three thematic sessions and one session of conclusions. Papers proposed for submission will be screened on the basis of abstracts submitted and a number of them selected for oral presentation, 10 minutes each. In addition, Session Chairpersons will be invited to give a summary statement covering all papers/posters submitted to the respective session.
The four Sessions were defined as follows:
SESSION 1: REVIEW OF FISHERY MANAGEMENT AND POLICY ISSUES
This session will address various aspects of fishery management with emphasis on the perspective of social sciences. Special attention will be given to the following topics: socio-economic principles of fishery management; related policy issues; legislation and enforcement; conflict resolution amongst users; as well as mechanisms for user participation in fishery management. Social, economic, cultural and historical aspects will be reviewed and analyzed.
SESSION 2: ASSESSMENT AND VALUATION OF INLAND FISHERIES
This session will focus on the welfare contribution to society, which is being derived from inland fisheries activities. It will address the assessment of fishery systems as well as the evaluation of fishery outcomes from a social and economic perspective. Assessment of the socio-economic and cultural significance of the sector will be presented, in general, with reference to specific water bodies or in reference to specific fisheries (whether commercial, recreational or subsistence). Methods and difficulties related to evaluation will be emphasized.
SESSION 3: PERSPECTIVE IN INLAND FISHERIES
In this session, the perspective of inland fisheries will be reviewed and analyzed. Emphasis will be given to trends in fishery-related activities, including fishery management. Future demands on the inland fishery sector will be discussed, especially in relation to likely threats and opportunities. New trends in education and promotion will also be reviewed.
SESSION 4: SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION
In this session, the Chairperson of the Symposium assisted by the Chairpersons of Sessions 1-3 will review the main findings of the Symposium. These will be discussed and conclusions will be drawn on this basis. Main conclusions and recommendations will be brought to the attention of EIFAC, for consideration during its Twenty-first Session.
By September a second announcement for the Symposium will be distributed, with the following changed deadlines: Submission of abstracts by 15 October, full papers to be submitted by 1 March 2000 (unchanged).
The Symposium will be convened by Mr M. Sipponen (Finland) and chaired by Mr K. Pintér (Hungary). The Steering Committee will comprise the Convener, the Symposium Chairperson, the Vice-Chairperson and the Chairpersons of the Symposium sessions as well as the Technical Secretary of the Symposium.
3. Communication
Mr C. Moriarty had drafted a leaflet on EIFAC which, amended by the Secretariat, was circulated for comments. Mr I. Cowx undertook to improve on the text; the revised version was approved for printing in English and French. The main objective of the leaflet is to raise awareness within European fisheries institutions and administrations about the existence of EIFAC, its role and its potential for providing assistance.
It was agreed to establish at FAO an E-mail discussion group comprising EIFAC Correspondents, Officers and the Secretariat. The establishment of additional discussion groups at national level was also encouraged to quickly spread news on EIFAC activities.
No progress was made on the creation of a web site news page; Mr Moriarty will follow up on this with Mr R.L. Welcomme.
The Secretariat invited contributions for inclusion in the next issue of the EIFAC Newsletter.
4. Report on Sub-Commission I
4.1 Ad hoc Working Party on Fishing Gear Selectivity
With regard to publishing the work on gillnetting for roach, which still needs editing, Mr R. Müller informed the meeting that he was still determined to pursue. He offered to seek a publisher. The publication is envisaged for the year 2000.
Action: Müller
4.2 Ad hoc Working Party on Eels
The last Session of the Joint EIFAC/ICES Working Group on Eel took place in September 1996 in Ijmuiden, Netherlands (EIFAC Occasional Paper 33). In view of the prolonged decline of the recruitment of the eel, over almost the entire distribution area, now experienced for over a decade, it was recommended to restrict fisheries and intensify monitoring and research. The next Session will be held coming September, in Silkeborg, Denmark. In the intersessional period, the recommendations have been communicated to the European Union and to member states, and discussions on the need and potentials for centralized management have taken considerable time. ICES Advisory Committee on Fisheries Management has provided formal advice to the EU, concluding that the eel stock is outside safe biological limits and the current fishery is not sustainable. It is recommended to manage the eel fisheries on a system by system basis. The coming meeting of the Working Group on Eel will explore potentials for such a management system, and will focus on the development of target levels for the escapement of silver eel. The report of the session will be available by November 1999 to be discussed in the November meeting of ICES/ACFM.
Action: Dekker
4.3 Ad hoc Working Party on Electric Fishing
Members of the Working Party convened in Älvkarleby, Sweden, on 16-18 September 1998. The aim of the meeting was to draw up a European standard for sampling of fish with electricity under the auspices of the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). Members of the Working Party provided considerable input to ensure that realistic targets were being set for electric fishing operations in different types of water body. A draft copy of the report "Sampling of fish with electricity" CEN/TC 230/WG 2/TG 4 N 8 is available from the coordinator of the standardization committee, Dr Göran Dave, Department of Applied Environmental Science, University of Gothenburg, Box 464, 405 30 Göteborg, Sweden.
During the intersessional period concern was again raised about the potential damaging effects of electric fishing on fish and fisheries. This is being driven from North America, but EIFAC member countries should be made aware of the potential implications of restricting electric fishing as a sampling methodology.
Mr Cowx was asked to liaise with CEN to stimulate further cooperation between CEN and EIFAC on inland fishery matters, as CEN was obviously not fully aware of EIFAC's activities. CEN should inform EIFAC well in advance about their meetings in which aspects of inland fisheries would be dealt with.
Action: Cowx
4.4 Ad hoc Working Party on Stocking and Introductions
The Working Party has been active in assisting in the collation of information to support a wider EU initiative on the importance and impact of stock enhancement programmes of freshwater fisheries in Europe. This programme is evaluating the status of inland fisheries and the role of stock enhancement activities to support their development throughout Europe. The wider sanitary, genetic and ecological impacts of stocking and introductions of fish are also being assessed. A bibliography of the available literature on stock enhancement has been compiled and includes over 4,000 references.
Action: Cowx
4.5 Synopsis on Alosa alosa and Alosa fallax
Mr M. Aprahamian has completed the sections on Identity (description, nomenclature and morphology), Reproduction (age at first spawning, gonadal development, fecundity), Spawning (spawning areas and behaviour), Nutrition and growth (diet, growth), Diseases and parasites (parasites), Homing and Migration (adult migration in fresh water, juvenile migration) and Fish passes. The sections on Distribution, Description of development stages, Population characteristics, Adult migration - estuarine phase as well as Exploitation and culture have still to be completed. Mr Aprahamian envisages completing the draft in 1999 and expects publication of the Synopsis in June 2000.
Some assistance in translating material from Croatian language into English could be provided by Mr U. Barg; Professor Treer's address for potential further assistance with translation problems will be conveyed to Mr Aprahamian.
Action: Brenner/Barg
4.6 Ad hoc Working Party on Mapping of Fish Distribution and Aquatic Habitat Quality
Making reference to a recent meeting with Mr A. Lelek, who is the Convener of the Working Party, Mr T. Brenner informed the Session about the problems Mr Lelek is facing with regard to institutional backing since his retirement from the Senckenberg Museum. Mr Lelek is determined to continue to act as the Convener, if he can secure funding for basic support, which he was confident to find soon. Mr Brenner mentioned the need for a meeting of the members of the Working Party in order to achieve progress. Furthermore, Mr Brenner informed that he would contact EAA and two German associations to seek funding.
Action: Brenner
5. Report on Sub-Commission II
5.1 Workshop on Health Management
Preparations are underway for the envisaged workshop entitled "Health Management in Sturgeon and Carp Aquaculture and Fisheries" which will be held from 18-19 September 1999, in Rhodes, Greece. This workshop is being organized in cooperation with the European Association of Fish Pathologists (EAFP), in conjunction with the EAFP International Conference on Fish and Shellfish Disease, 20-23 September 1999.
It is expected that about 35 experts will attend the EIFAC workshop, mainly from EIFAC member countries and also from other countries such as the USA, Australia, etc., most of whom will also attend the EAFP Conference. There will be eight participants from former USSR. Professor Randolph Richards (Institute of Aquaculture, Stirling, UK) will chair the Workshop, assisted by Mr R. Subasinghe (FAO), who will act as the Technical Secretary of the workshop.
Action: Richards/Subasinghe
5.2 Ad hoc Working Party on Aquaculture and Aquatic Resources Management
Mr H. Ackefors (Sweden), Chairperson of the Working Party, had informed the Secretariat that he had experienced � for health and other reasons - some delays in finalizing the summary and synthesis of the reports of his working party. He expects that he will soon be able to take on the task of finalizing the synthesis, probably during the forthcoming summer months.
Action: Ackefors/Barg
5.3 Fish and Crustacean Nutrition
Mr L. Varadi informed the meeting that an excellent opportunity had been identified for publishing the Proceedings of the Workshop on Fish and Crustacean Nutrition Methodology and Research for Semi-intensive Pond-based Farming Systems, held in Szarvas, Hungary, in 1996. A set of selected papers will be published in the Hungarian Periodical for "Development in Fisheries". FAO would be interested in receiving sufficient copies of the volume for distribution to authors and EIFAC officers.
Action: Varadi
5.4 Review of Aquaculture Development Trends in Europe
The Fish Culture Research Institute in Szarvas, Hungary ("HAKI") is currently preparing a Review of Aquaculture Development Trends in Europe. This initiative, which is being undertaken in cooperation with the FAO Inland Water Resources and Aquaculture Service, is part of a major ongoing effort by FAO which is aimed at producing a set of reviews of major aquaculture development trends in the various regions and continents as well as a global synthesis for presentation and discussion at the forthcoming FAO Expert Consultation on Aquaculture Development Trends, which will be held 25-28 October 1999, in Bangkok, Thailand.
The outcome of this expert meeting will be presented and discussed at the Conference on Aquaculture in the Third Millennium, which is a global conference being organized by the Network of Aquaculture Centers in Asia-Pacific (NACA) and FAO, and which will be held on 20-25 February 2000, also in Bangkok. HAKI is cooperating with FAO and NACA in these important initiatives, by providing its expertise and experience in aquaculture development in both Europe and developing countries, especially in Asia.
These initiatives, especially those focussing on European aquaculture, will be of immediate benefit for the proposed programme activities of the EIFAC Sub-Commission on Aquaculture, as identified in the Report of the Twentieth Session of the Commission (see paragraph 30).
Action: Varadi/Barg
5.5 Conference on Aquaculture Economics and Marketing
Mr L. Varadi informed the meeting of the forthcoming Conference on Aquaculture Economics and Marketing, which will be held from 30 August to 1 September 1999 in Debrecen, Hungary. The organizers of this conference have invited a number of international experts as well as organizations and projects, including FAO and EASTFISH, to participate in this event, which is expected to provide key information and guidance on aquaculture production and trade, especially for Eastern European aquaculture producers and exporters, as well as for investors and traders generally. At that conference Mr A. Lem (FAO) will present a paper on trade of aquaculture products.
Action: Varadi/Lem/Barg
5.6 Meeting of the European Fisheries Advisors
The meeting noted that DG XIV of the European Commission is organizing a meeting of European Fisheries Advisors (17-18 June 1999, Bremen, Germany), which will be attended by Mr L. Varadi, in his capacity as observer. It was emphasized that the Bremen meeting is focussed on development needs and opportunities of non-EU countries in the developing world. Hungarian and other European experts have played a significant role in providing technical know how to developing countries. It was noted that there were opportunities for further technical collaboration, especially in Eastern European countries members of EIFAC. Mr Varadi was invited to inform EIFAC accordingly.
Action: Varadi/Naeve/Barg
5.7 Cooperation EIFAC - FEAP
The Federation of European Aquaculture Producers (FEAP) recently held its Thirty-first Annual General Meeting, 13-15 May 1999, in Westport, Ireland. Mr U. Barg (FAO), was invited by FEAP to attend this meeting, both in his capacity as Technical Secretary of EIFAC Sub-Commission on Aquaculture, as well as to assist in discussions by a FEAP Working Group who is currently formulating a draft FEAP Code of Conduct for European Aquaculture.
It was noted by the EXCOM that the FEAP meeting had expressed its strong interest in further cooperating with EIFAC, and that the private sector in Europe continues to have high regard of the technical documentation produced by EIFAC in the field of aquaculture.
Action:Barg/Varadi
6. Report on Sub-Commission III
6.1 EIFAC Expert Consultation on Accumulated Toxicants in Fish
In the course of 1998, the Department of Aquatic Toxicology of the RIFCH SB Institute at Vodnany continued sampling fish and other components of aquatic ecosystems for the determination of pollutants. The results of the analyses were put into the database of both RIFCH and the Ministry of Agriculture of the Czech Republic. The results were presented on two international conferences. A report on hazardous substances in the aquatic habitat and within food chains was published by the Ministry of Agriculture of the Czech Republic in 1998, summarising results of recent monitoring activities on accumulated toxicants in fish in the Czech Republic.
In order to clarify the present role and future involvement of EIFAC in this subject, the Chairperson will contact the Convener, Ms Z. Svobodovà (Czech Republic) and explore possible alternatives. The Twenty-first Session of EIFAC, to be held in June 2000, will then decide how to proceed with this expert consultation.
Action: Müller
6.2 Ad hoc Working Party on Effects of Physical Modifications of the Aquatic Habitat on Fish Populations
After the ad hoc meeting of the Working Party during the Symposium on River Fisheries (Hull, 1998), there had been no action in the intersessional period, due to the heavy workload of the Convener. The Convener of the Working Party, Mr J. Coeck, plans to organise a new ad hoc meeting during the next year.
Action: Cowx
6.3 Ad hoc Working Party on Methodologies for Rehabilitation of Lakes and Reservoirs
This activity was upgraded to an ad hoc Working Party during the Twentieth session of EIFAC in 1998, with Mr H. Lehtonen (Finland) as the Convener. The main purpose of this activity is to prepare a manual on rehabilitation of lakes and reservoirs as a companion to the one for rivers. Tentative contents list was agreed for the manual and a number of participants volunteered to prepare individual chapters. Chapter outlines were due by October 1998, and the draft chapters were to be submitted by the end of May 1999.
So far, outlines for most of the 13 chapters were received. As of 24 May, drafts of the three chapters by Messrs. Appelberg, Horppila and Vehanen, as well as some material by Messrs. Welcomme and Cowx, were available. It was suggested to take advantage of the forthcoming Symposium on Lakes in Hull in 2000 to hold a meeting of the Working Party. Mr Müller kindly offered to contact Mr Lehtonen to discuss details of chapter outlines, exchange of available material and further steps to be taken.
Action: Müller
6.4 Ad hoc Working Party on the Prevention and Control of Bird Predation
No activity has been noted at the level of the European cormorant management plan during the last year. Unfortunately, the countries holding the most important breeding areas, such as the Netherlands and Denmark, are not willing to take any action against the rising numbers of cormorants or to permit actions for lowering cormorant numbers. However, with the elimination of the cormorant from the EU list of highly protected birds, EU member states may take action against the cormorant in well-founded cases. Some countries have indeed made use of this possibility in recent years.
A report prepared by the European Anglers� Association (EAA) on the cormorant-fish issue was published at the end of 1998.
The Convener is willing to pursue this topic by observing the developments in Europe (Cormorant Research Group, others). A meeting with French colleagues for assessing the situation in France is planned in the near future.
The Session proposed to the Working Party to consider drafting of guidelines on how to evaluate effects of bird predation and, eventually, prepare a draft Statement on the subject for consideration at the Twenty-first Session of EIFAC.
Action: Müller
6.5 GESAMP/EIFAC Working Group on Endocrine Disruptors in the Aquatic Environment
Mr H. Naeve, as FAO Technical Secretary for GESAMP, informed the Session that the proposed co-sponsorship by EIFAC of the GESAMP Working Group had been welcomed by IMO, the lead agency for that GESAMP activity. The forthcoming Session of GESAMP in August 1999 will address the issue and the formation of a joint working party will be forthcoming.
Action: Naeve
7. Report on Sub-Commission IV
7.1 Ad hoc Working Party on Recreational Fisheries
Some progress has been made on the Code of Practice for recreational fisheries. Existing documents have been identified and a possible framework layout is being developed.
Implementation of the recommendations of the Nineteenth Session has met with varying levels of success. With respect to the evaluation of inland fisheries, it is expected that the 2000 EIFAC Symposium will provide guidance and information. Regarding other recommendations, it has been suggested that a very short questionnaire be used and the results compiled for reporting to the Twenty-first Session of EIFAC.
Several countries have expressed interest in the proposed Year 2000 Angling Census. Accordingly, the taskforce members intend to produce a set a standard questions for inclusion in national programmes. In order to influence the business plans of participating countries for the financial year 2000-2001, action needs to be taken prior to October 1999.
An International Symposium on Evaluating the Benefits of Recreational Fishing was held in Vancouver in June 1999. The Chairperson of Sub-Commission IV attended and reported on the outcome of the meeting.
Action: Hickley
7.2 Ad hoc Working Party on Education and Training
Reference was made to earlier efforts to compile institutional information on education and training through a questionnaire. The Convener reported on the existence of relevant and up-dated information as regard higher education. (Higher Education in Aquaculture and related Sciences. Guide to courses within Europe. AQUA TNET, DG XXII). Reference was also made to the existence of compiled information on higher education outside the EU (a document published by the EU and one published by ICLARM/FAO).
In this context, it was recommended that priority be given to the compilation of information on mechanisms and curricula for the training of anglers, including basic elements of a code of practice. A questionnaire could be used to obtain this information from EIFAC correspondents. The results could be presented at the next Session of EIFAC. Messrs. Cowx and Moriarty would assist the Convener in this exercise.
The following new terms of reference for the Working Party were approved:
The Working Party aims to increase the awareness of contemporary issues on commercial and recreational inland fisheries to the concerned public throughout Europe.
Acknowledging that many countries have already made substantial progress in these activities, the first aim of the Working Party will be to carry out a scoping study to identify sources of information, information training packages and courses relevant to improving this awareness.
This information should be collated by the Working Party as a forerunner to preparing a framework for drafting guidelines for training and dissemination of information related to issues concerning recreational and commercial fisheries activities around Europe and elsewhere.
Action: Brenner
7.3 Resolution of Conflicts in River Basins
It was recommended that EIFAC correspondents be approached to provide a list of documents (plans if they exist) from river basin organization on this topic.
Action: Naeve
8. Emerging Issues - Prospects for new Activities
It was agreed to include this topic in the agenda of future EIFAC Sessions and EXCOM meetings. Participants will be alerted in advance so that they may prepare contributions for this agenda item.
9. Financial Support for EIFAC Activities
The meeting felt that for funding of EIFAC working parties and symposia it would be appropriate to approach, in addition to conventional donors, also non-governmental organizations and the private sector, where possible.
10. Any Other Matters
10.1 EIFAC Membership
The meeting took note, with appreciation, that Iceland and Latvia had joined the Commission, bringing membership in EIFAC to 33 countries and the European Community. FAO member countries in Europe not yet members of the Commission are Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Georgia, Malta, Moldova, Slovenia, and the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia.
10.2 Publication of Symposium Proceedings
The Secretary of EIFAC informed the meeting about progress made towards publication of selected papers presented at the 1998 Symposium on Water for Sustainable Inland Fisheries and Aquaculture as a special issue of "Fisheries Management and Ecology". The meeting suggested that the Chairperson of the Symposium, Mr H. Ackefors should be invited to prepare a foreword for that special issue. Messrs. Müller and Naeve should appear as the editors of the volume.
