The attached

on Rules, based on the proposals contained in document RD/TN/RL/29/Rev.3. These
working documents relate to definitions, scope, 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.4 is
circulated exclusively to incorporate the new working document on definitions.
No changes have been made to the other texts as circulated in the Rev.3 version
of this document.
