PREPARATION OF THIS DOCUMENT

An Expert Consultation on the Regulation of Fishing Effort was convened by FAO in Rome, 17–26 January 1983, as one of the preparatory meetings for the World Conference. The purpose of the Consultation was to review the experiences of countries with fisheries management techniques. The report of the Consultation, as approved by the participants at the conclusion of the meeting, was distributed in 1983. The papers presented at the Consultation have been prepared as supplements to the Report. The first supplement contains the abstracts of the papers in three languages: English, French and Spanish. Supplement 2 contains those papers that specifically relate to the theoretical aspects of fisheries management and its practice in a general manner. This document, Supplement 3, contains those papers that cover the management approaches adopted and experiences by individual countries. Supplements 2 and 3 are available in English only.

Abstract
The papers contained in this Supplement are concerned with approaches to regulating fishing effort encountered by individual countries and experiences in the management of specific fisheries. The first paper, by way of introduction to the Supplement, describes the scientific process in formulating management advice within an International Commission and the second paper describes the procedures followed by a regional organization in implementing these scientific recommendations. The remaining papers describe fisheries management practices in individual countries, listed alphabetically, followed by management experiences for shrimp, snapper, lobster, herring, groundfish, anchovy, surf clams, halibut and sardine fisheries.
