      6     Future work

      The Working Group will identify a prioritised list of topics to provide to the Scientific Committee for consideration and advice in structuring a future work plan (SC-CAMLR-XXXV/15, SC-CAMLR-XXXV, Table 1). The Working Group will develop an updated list for discussion by the Scientific Committee.

      7     Advice to the Scientific Committee and its working groups

      WG-EMM provides advice to each of the working groups and to the Scientific Committee on ecosystem monitoring and management. Specific advice that has been requested will be summarised in this agenda item following general discussion in other agenda items. Advice will also be given to the Scientific Committee on the priorities discussed during the meeting for the development and refinement of quantitative methods.

      8     Adoption of the report and close of the meeting.

      As is usual practice in meetings of the Scientific Committee and its working groups, rapporteurs will draft sections of the report according to general guidelines for its production. The Secretariat is responsible for formatting, editing and circulation of the report. Any proposed changes to the report prior to report adoption need to be arranged through the rapporteurs or the Convener using the web-based document management system. Adoption of the report will be conducted interactively.

      Discussion will conclude by midday Thursday, allowing Thursday afternoon and evening for report preparation and reading. Report adoption will be on Friday morning.
