The data on marine sed-iment extraction will be reported on a yearly base for OSPAR in an Interim Report.

New Terms of Reference have been defined on databases and harmonization of data, MSFD, publishing, deep-sea mining, cultural and geomorphologic values, thresholds for EIAs, mitigation and a cumulative assessment guidance. ICES WGEXT agreed to meet again in Iceland in June 2014 as guests of the National Energy Authority.
