Expert Group on Maritime Policy

At the 15th Ministerial Session in Elsinore, Denmark on the 4th of June the Ministers welcomed the decision to set up an Expert Group on Maritime Policy intended to contribute to sustainable growth and employment in the maritime sector, to combine and better coordinate all sea related activities and tasks, as well as to strike an appropriate balance between economic, social and ecological aspects. The Expert Group is cross-sectoral and will coordinate its work mainly between the priority areas of Economic Development and the Environment.

The Terms of Reference are available to the right for your convenience.
