I~ternational Council for the
Exploration of the Sea
C.M.1916/E:10
Fisheries Improvement Committee
INFORMATION ON PRODUCTION OF MARINE SAND AND GRAVEL IN THE ICES AREA
by
the General Secretary
•
1.
The Council has by Resolution C.Res.1914/4:24 requested the member
countries to submit on an annual basis details of marine sand and
gravel extraction within their respective sectors.
2.
Such information has now been made available by several member
countrieso It is reproduced' in the present document.
3.
The Fisheries Improvement Committee may wish to advise the Council
as to how this information should in the future be presented. There
seem to be three alternatives~
a)
in aseparate document as the present one;
b)
in periodical reports from the Working Group on the Effects
on Fisheries of Marine Aggregate Extraction;
in the Administrative Reports of the Fisheries Improvement
Committeeo
c)
It would seem to the General Secretary that Alternative c) has advantages.
