Rome, FAO HQ, 15-19 February 2010

The Technical Consultation on the Development of Technical Guidelines on Aquaculture Certification was recommended by the 4th Session of COFI Subcommittee for Aquaculture when the draft FAO Technical Guidelines to Aquaculture Certification developed from 6 expert workshops held around the world was introduced and discussed among the members and later endorsed by the 28th Session of COFI. It is anticipated that the agreement on the final document of the technical guideline will be reached among the members during the consultation and it will clear the way for the final endorsement at the next session of the COFI Subcommittee for Aquaculture.
