Book Description
The third Working Party on Fisheries Data and Statistics was attended by participants from Comoros, Kenya, Madagascar, Mauritius, Mozambique, Seychelles, Somalia, South Africa, the United Republic of Tanzania, and Yemen. The Working Party received updates of the status of fisheries data collection by the member countries of the South West Indian Ocean Fisheries Commission (SWIOFC). Since 2008 improvements have been made, Madagascar and the Comoros started to improve their system the only count ry without a data collection system is Somalia. The Working Party discussed reported catch statistics and the availability of statistical bulletins. The Working Party discussed the development of an integrated Regional Information System based on three existing systems (STATBASE, WIOFish and FIRMS). Improvement of minimum requirements for a number of fisheries was discussed, major improvements are related to frame surveys implemented since the second Working Party in 2008. Information on socio economics of fisheries is generally lacking in the region and should be improved. The statistics of fishery catches in each country was examined and recommendations made for their improvement. First draft definition for the classification of artisanal fishing vessels based on length, vessel material and motorisation was made. Further, the sustainability of databases developed by the SWIOFP was discussed and the participants agreed the the costs related to hosting and instititutional aspects sh ould be studied. The Working Party made recommendations on improving the situation of fisheries data and statistics for the consideration of the Scientific Committee of the SWIOFC.

Book Description
The Third Meeting of the Working Group on Shrimp and Groundfish of the Northern Brazil-Guianas Shelf was held in Paramaribo, Suriname, 26–27 November 2019. The meeting brought together 25 participants including Working Group members, fisheries officers, fisherfolk representatives, academia, government organizations and FAO. The scope of the Working Group is to provide scientific and management advice for the sustainable management of the shrimp and groundfish resources of the Northern Brazil-Guianas shelf in the WECAFC Region. The member countries representatives also presented an update on the status and development of their national fisheries management plans, followed by a discussion about the current status and necessary steps to develop a sub-regional EAF management plan for shrimp and groundfish. Additionally, advances in a gender analysis along the small scale fisheries value chain in Guyana, Suriname, and Trinidad and Tobago was presented, as well as an update regarding progress with the development of the subregional Monitoring and Evaluation Framework and Indicators to inform policy making on governance effectiveness. Working Group participants reviewed and discussed the draft regional strategy for bycatch management in the WECAFC Area developed by the REBYC II LAC project. They also discussed the needs and priorities to combat IUU fishing in the Northern Brazil-Guianas-shelf, as well as the need to enhance capacity in stock assessment techniques in the sub-region. A work plan for the intersessional period was agreed upon by the participants. Finally, based on Working Group discussions and the requirements for sustainable management of the shrimp and groundfish resources of the Northern Brazil-Guianas Shelf, a draft recommendation was prepared for consideration by the upcoming 18th session of WECAFC.

The final report forms Part I of the volume, and reviews our knowledge of distributional patterns of commercial invertebrates (conch and lobster), demersal and small and large pelagic fish stocks occurring in the Lesser Antilles subregion of the WECAF Commission area, and on the basis of existing information, places these resources in objective categories from a fisheries management perspective. The main options for management of domestic and foreign fishing are outlined. Part II contains background documents on a variety of topics, including reviews of the existing data base on invertebrates and demersal fish stocks, swordfish and oceanic pelagics. An objective classification of stocks by mode of sharing is presented, foreign fishing activity in the subarea is reviewed, and seasonality and migrations of pelagic fish discussed. An overview of options for shared stock management is also included.
