| This document reports on the fifth in a series of regional workshops organized by the FAO Western Central Atlantic Fishery Commission (WECAFC) in cooperation with various regional institutions following on from those held in 1997, 1998, 2000 and 2002 (refer to FAO Fisheries Reports 619, 643 and 715). The goal of each workshop was to build on the information based on the previous workshop.
The fifth Regional Workshop comprised two meetings: the scientific meeting which reviewed and updated the status of the Caribbean spiny lobster at national, subregional and regional levels; the management meeting reviewed the conclusions and recommendations of the scientific meeting and agreed on strategies to ensure optimal and sustainable use of the resource. Amongst other important recommendations, the management meeting agreed that countries that do not have a minimum size in their regulations that is equal to or above 74 mm carapace length as the minimum size for harvest should make efforts to establish this size. In addition to minimum size, the management of fishing mortality was also necessary to achieve sustainable utilization of the resource.
