(vi) Interested agencies should consider the 

 allocation of adequate funds for the IOC 

 through agreements with UNESCO to meet the 

 above needs. 



(vll) Interested agencies should he encouraged to 

 provide services needed by the IOC to meet 

 the above needs. For example, meetings of 

 mutual concern to the IOC and other agencies 

 might be convened at the headquarters of 

 these other agencies. Appropriate studies 

 might be made, experts provided, and publish- 

 ing facilities made available. 



(viii) Member States of interested agencies who are 

 not Members of the IOC should be encouraged 

 by those agencies to become Members of the 

 IOC and to participate in its work, particu- 

 larly in the formulation and coordination of 

 the long-range and expanded programme. 



(ix) Member States should be encouraged to provide 

 at their own expense experts to the IOC for 

 a specified period to carry out specific 

 responsibilities for which staff is unavail- 

 able in the IOC Secretariat. 



(x) Consideration should be given to broadening 

 the field from which scientific advice is 

 drawn beyond that covered now by SCOR and 

 ACMRR. For example, the IOC and WMO should 

 consider the manner in which scientific 

 advice on the meteorological aspects of 

 IOC programmes might be provided in much the 

 same way as IOC and FAO have arranged for __ 

 provision of advice on the fisheries aspects 

 of oceanography through ACMRR. There are 

 other areas, such as scientific aspects of 

 ocean engineering, where it may become 

 necessary to establish appropriate advisory 

 channels. In order to Improve the mechanism 

 for providing scientific advice, there should 

 also be a careful study of the possibility 

 of strengthening and consolidation of the 

 scientific bodies concerned with various 

 aspects of marine science.
