| Summary: | The second annual meeting of the International Commission for Northwest Atlantic Fisheries met at St. Andrews, New Brunswick, Canada, June 30–July 9, 1952. Among the matters considered by the commission were a review of the activities of the organization since the first meeting in April 1951, permanent headquarters for the organization, election of a new chairman and executive secretary, the 1952–1953 budget, and the composition of the five sub-areas into which the commission area was divided. In addition, the commission considered recommendations formulated at a meeting of members of sub-area V held in Ottawa on February 26, 1952. The United States and Canada, who comprised the sub-area adjacent to the New England coast, recommended that the commission 1) instruct the Research and Statistics Committee to make a detailed study of all fish resources falling within the purview of the commission; 2) consider a proposed regulation for haddock fishing, including a proposal to increase the average mesh size of nets used in fishing for haddock off the New England coast; and 3) call the attention of interested governments to a recommended research program concerning haddock. |
