Our comment is related to fisheries. In some types of fisheries there are problems with discards.This is a type of food waste that should be avoided.

FAO has developed guidelines on this issue: International Guidelines on Bycatch Management and Reduction of Discards (adopted by the Committee on Fisheries at its 29th session in 2011)

This issue ought to be included in the final report.
