Abstract
This paper contains an introduction to the essential features of Operational Research and Management in relation to any organisation. It is intended also to show how the special requirement of the UK fishing industry affects the emphasis on the roles and resources which concern the decision makers and advisers. The relationship of the individual studies require a larger framework to illustrate their importance.
