| ABSTRACT |
| The Symposium on Stock Enhancement in the Management of Freshwater Fisheries, held in Budapest, Hungary, 31 May to 2 June 1982, discussed two aspects of management of freshwater fisheries by manipulation of stocks. |
| The first of these was stocking with native species and it was concluded that there is a general paucity of information on the success and failure of current stocking practices in most species. |
| The second aspect was the introduction of species exotic to the European national faunas. Here, the risks of such introductions were discussed and it was recommended that the formulation of a Code of Practice to reduce the risk of such adverse effects should be undertaken. |
