Abstract

ABSTRACT The White Fish Authority was the government development body for most of the British fishing industry from its establishment in 1951 until its merger with the Herring Industry Board thirty years later. Setting the WFA in the context of wider debates over the efficacy of development councils in general, this article surveys and critiques the record of the Authority. It argues that despite weaknesses in its conception, financing and management, the Authority was nevertheless a positive force overall.

期刊介绍： The Journal for Maritime Research ( JMR ), established by the National Maritime Museum in 1999, focuses on historical enquiry at the intersections of maritime, British and global history. It champions a wide spectrum of innovative research on the maritime past. While the Journal has a particular focus on the British experience, it positions this within broad oceanic and international contexts, encouraging comparative perspectives and interdisciplinary approaches. The journal publishes research essays and reviews around 15-20 new books each year across a broad spectrum of maritime history. All research articles published in this journal undergo rigorous peer review, involving initial editor screening and independent assessment, normally by two anonymous referees.
