The Consultation also emphasized the principle of using the best scientific information available in each proposal for listing. It agreed that the existing process within CITES for scientific evaluation of proposals for listing, transfer and de-listing should be strengthen ed and that there should be more explicit involvement in evaluation of proposals of fisheries agencies and regional fisheries management organizations, and a greater role for FAO. -

The Technical Consultation on the Suitability of the CITES Criteria for Listing Commercially-exploited Aquatic Species was held at FAO Headquarters in Rome, Italy, from 28 to 30 June 2000. It was attended by delegations from 58 Members of FAO and by observers. The Consultation reviewed a draft report by the FAO Secretariat entitled "The key points from an appraisal of the suitability of the CITES criteria for listing commercially-exploited aquatic species" and commented on possible amendments to it. In addition, the Consultation agreed on a set of points to be considered by the Committee on Fisheries (COFI) as a basis for possible recommendations to FAO Members, the Secretariat and CITES. These elements concerned recommendations for refinement of the CITES criteria and guidelines as they applied to resources exploited by fisheries in marine and large freshwater bodies, as well as the process utilized by CITES in listing such resources. Also amongst these elements, the Consultation suggested COFI may recommend that the FAO Secretariat establish effective mechanisms to contribute to the elaboration and review of the criteria by CITES, and that the Fisheries Department of FAO play a facilitating role in improved dialogue and communications among member States, regional fishery management organizations and CITES.
