35. The meeting captured the above outcomes by generating:
The present administrative report of the meeting;
Two separate draft technical documents: contribution, role and importance of small-scale fisheries and a draft research agenda for small-scale fisheries including terms of reference on some thematic topics with a checklist of suggested actions to bridge the gap between research and action;
The Working Party requested that these two documents be published in an appropriate FAO publication series as soon as they are endorsed by ACFR;
The Working Party agreed that the background papers be published in an appropriate FAO publication series to raise the profile of small-scale fisheries; and
Because of time constraints, the Working Party could only provide preliminary ideas on key elements to be included in the proposed draft guidelines on small-scale fisheries. Members expressed their willingness to be associated with this initiative, as appropriate.
