2001

The Annual Meeting scheduled to take place during 17-21 September in Varadero, Cuba was cancelled due the unfortunate events that took place in the USA on September 11. The Scientific Council was able to accomplish their tasks due to the arrival of the main body of scientists at the proceeding Symposium. The General Council and Fisheries Commission convened 29 January-01 February 2002.
