      Abstract    
                  Each year, WG-FSA and WG-EMM undertake assessments of stocks and other parameters. The WG-FSA Subgroup on Assessment Methods (WG-FSA-SAM) is to consider the assessment methods to be used by WG-FSA in 2003. This paper aims to summarise the existing assessment process for each species considered by WG-FSA. It concludes with a suggested format for these summaries in the future.
