A later edition?
Yes, it is true that this edition has been printed later than
normal, but with two important observer conferences being held near
the end of 2004 we felt a delay would be preferable so we could
include a report on them. One was the 4th International Fisheries
Observer Conference and the second was the 5th Western and Central
Pacific Regional Observer Coordinators’ Workshop, both held in
Sydney, Australia. Full reports on these conferences are available
inside.
A third meeting,
which took place in November and will have a significant impact on
the work of observers, was the meeting of the Tuna Fishery Data
Collection Committee of the Secretariat of the Pacific Community
(SPC) and the Forum Fisheries Agency (FFA). The outcomes of that
meeting — newly revised data collection forms — will change how
observers and port samplers collect data. A report of the meeting
should be available on line by the time you read this article, at:
