The Committee on Fisheries established the Sub-Committee on Fish Trade to serve as a multilateral framework for consultations on international trade in fishery products. The sixteenth session of the Sub-Committee was held in Busan, Republic of Korea, from 4 to 8 September 2017.

The Consultation stressed the benefits of internationally agreed guidelines aimed at avoiding the misuse of ecolabelling schemes through, inter alia, preventing them becoming barriers to trade. In the course of in-depth discussions, the Consultation was able to make good progress in completing the guidelines, in particular the part dealing with the procedural and institutional aspects of ecolabelling schemes. The Consultation nevertheless acknowledged that more work was still necessary on, inter alia, terms and definitions and the minimum substantive requirements and criteria. - Ont assist� � la Consultation cinquante-sept Membres de la FAO et des observateurs de quatre organisations intergouvernementales et de neuf organisations internationales non gouvernementales. La Consultation a soulign� les avantages de directives convenues sur le plan international visant � �viter que les syst�mes d'�co�tiquetage ne puissent �tre utilis�es pour faire obstacle au commerce international. - A la Consulta asistieron 57 Miembros de la FAO y observadores de cuatro organizaciones intergubernamentales y nueve organizaciones no gubernamentales internacionales. La Consulta subray� las ventajas de unas directrices acordadas a nivel internacional destinadas a evitar la utilizaci�n incorrecta de los sistemas de ecoetiquetado del pescado, entre otras cosas impidiendo que se conviertan en obst�culos al comercio. Como resultado de su examen en detalle de las Directrices, la Consulta hizo considerables progresos con vistas a completarlas, en particular la parte relativa a los aspectos de procedimiento e institucionales de los sistemas de ecoetiquetado.
