Communication FROM THE CHAIR
Revision*
The attached
working documents have emerged from the intensive work in the Negotiating Group
on Rules, based on the proposals contained in document RD/TN/RL/29/Rev.3. These
working documents relate to the proposed prohibitions on fisheries subsidies relating
to IUU fishing, overfished stocks, overcapacity, capacity-enhancing subsidies,
and overfishing, and to provisions on notifications and transparency, and
special and differential treatment, which are being considered in the Group.
* This Rev.2 is
circulated exclusively to incorporate certain agreed changes to the texts on
IUU fishing and overfished stocks that were inadvertently omitted from the
versions of those texts that were circulated in TN/RL/W/274/Rev.1. All of the
attached texts are as agreed in the Negotiating Group as of 29 November 2017.
