Ladies and Gentlemen

Thank you all for your efforts over the past two days. I understand it had been a most productive meeting and that you have achieved a significant amount of work.

I am aware of the excellent preparatory work that the Programme Coordination Unit (Drew, Natasha, Michelle and Rosanna) have put into ensuring that this was a successful meeting. I believe this augurs well for continued successful implementation of the project leading to achievement, we hope of impressive outcomes and results.

To our Member Country Participants, thank you for your guidance which will ensure that the outcomes of the International Waters Project are in accord with your respective national needs.

To our CROP Partners, thank you for your input, for your involvement and support in this first formalized regional agency "experiment". We see this type of regional collaboration as an important way forward signaling the potential for similar regional endeavors.

To our other International and Regional Partners (both Intergovernmental and Non-Governmental), thank you. We look forward to your continued involvement and support.

Lastly, thank you Honorable Minister, and your co-chair, the distinguished delegate of the Cook Islands for your Chairing Skills. We have especially appreciated your making time to be present here, despite your other demanding commitments.

Thank you and Soifua
