Abstract: FAO Fisheries Technical Paper 438 consists of ten chapters and three appendixes. After a brief introduction to the background of the document, the Guide starts in chapter 2 by explaining tot he reader how it should be used. In chapter 3, it discusses how to prepare for a study of fishery subsidies. Then, before getting into more detailed advice on the study itself, a discussion follows on "what is a fisheries subsidy?" and "what are the various categories of subsidies?" in chapters 4 and 5. This part of the document is directed at those who are not fimiliar with the issues surrounding subsidies in fisheries. Chapter 6 is the core of the Guide. Here the reader is exposed to the use of different assessment methods. The emphasis is on how to determine the government cost - or revenue - and the value to the industry of a subsidy. |
