PARTICIPATION IN ORGANIZATIONS:
There was general agreement
that regional and subregional cooperation is important and that
organizations should be open to all interested States. Other
comments were: developing countries should receive preferential
treatment; States have the right not to accede to organizations but
also have the right and duty to cooperate; and, it is the
responsibility of both fishing States and coastal States to
participate in the financing of those organizations.
