    Keywords: Economics
    Abstract: This paper considers the case for adjusting measures of the cyclically-adjusted fiscal balance for exceptional movements in the terms of trade for those countries where production of commodities is a substantial share of output. For such countries exceptional movements in commodity prices, such as have occurred in recent years, are likely to lead to higher tax revenues, most immediately from the companies directly involved in extracting or producing the commodities, but also less directly as the consequent rise in the terms of trade increases real incomes more broadly. A simple method is proposed to allow for exceptional developments in commodity prices using an adjustment based on a concept of the real income gap rather than a real output gap. This method is subsequently applied to Australia -- one of the world?s leading producers of mined commodities -- and the results contrasted with the standard OECD method of calculating the cyclically-adjusted fiscal balance. It is shown that over much of history the two methods generate similar results, but during exceptional periods of rapid change in commodity prices the measures can be very different. The analysis highlights that a key assumption needed to adjust for commodity price developments concerns the equilibrium level of the terms of trade. While the assumption that the terms of trade returns to long-run historical trends might appear a natural benchmark, recent sustained strong growth in demand for commodities from China and other developing Asian economies raises the question as to whether this has led to a permanent increase in the terms of trade of major commodity producers like Australia and has thus permanently raised government revenues. This Working Paper relates to the 2006 OECD Economic Survey of Australia (www.oecd.org/eco/surveys/australia).

    Abstract: The efficient and safe management of spent fuel produced during the operation of commercial nuclear power plants is an important issue. In this context, partitioning and transmutation (P&T) of minor actinides and long-lived fission products can play an important role, significantly reducing the burden on geological repositories of nuclear waste and allowing their more effective use. Various systems, including existing reactors, fast reactors and advanced systems have been considered to optimise the transmutation scheme. Recently, many countries have shown interest in accelerator-driven systems (ADS) due to their potential for transmutation of minor actinides. Much R&D work is still required in order to demonstrate their desired capability as a whole system, and the current analysis methods and nuclear data for minor actinide burners are not as well established as those for conventionally-fuelled systems...

    Abstract: Norway is a prosperous country with a healthy economy and a very high standard of living. Norway provides a truly unique example of long-term budgetary planning through its successful management of oil assets by means of the Government Pension Fund – Global. This article examines the annual budget process which is an important factor in the health of Norway’s public finances. The cabinet has a central role in formulating the budget via the annual budget conferences. Parliament has a strong formal position, and the Ministry of Finance has a long tradition of providing objective and unbiased information to Parliament. The article also describes the high degree of managerial flexibility, the system of accountability for results, human resource management, financial management and reporting, the use of performance information, and the role of local and regional governments.

    Keywords: Economics ; Japan
    Abstract: Increasing productivity growth through innovation is a key to raising living standards. Although R&D intensity in Japan is the third highest in the OECD area, the benefits do not appear to have been commensurate with the level of investment. The innovation system, which developed during the catchingup process, is largely input-driven and focused on incremental innovation based on closed and stable corporate and employment systems. However, this approach is less appropriate in the current global environment that favours risk-taking and a more open system relying on external linkages. To improve the innovation system, a broad-based strategy is needed, including a reform of framework conditions in the product and labour markets to strengthen competition and mobility, enhance international R&D links and improve the environment for venture business. Education and public research should be upgraded through stronger competition. The effectiveness of science and technology policy should be increased by strengthening its link to economic framework policies. This Working Paper relates to the 2006 OECD Economic Survey of Japan (www.oecd.org/eco/surveys/japan).

    Abstract: Diese erste Ausgabe des Internationalen Migrationsausblicks analysiert die jüngsten Trendentwicklungen im Bereich der Wanderungsbewegungen und -politik in allen OECD-Ländern. Erstmals enthält der Bericht für die meisten OECD-Länder auch harmonisierte Statistiken über die langfristigen internationalen Zuwanderungsströme. Unterstrichen werden dabei die wachsende Bedeutung der Zuzüge aus Russland, der Ukraine, China und Lateinamerika sowie die zunehmende Feminisierung der Migrationsströme.Diese Ausgabe spiegelt das wachsende Interesse der Mitgliedsländer an der Anwerbung hoch qualifizierter Zuwanderer mit Hilfe von Auswahlverfahren sowie der befristeten, häufig saisonalen Beschäftigung gering qualifizierter Migranten wider. Das Schwergewicht liegt dabei insbesondere auf Maßnahmen für eine bessere Steuerung der Migrationsströme, speziellen Integrationsmaßnahmen für Neuzuwanderer, die von vorgeschriebenen Sprachkursen hin zu arbeitsplatzorientierten Initiativen reichen, sowie auf der Verstärkung der Maßnahmen zur Bekämpfung der Diskriminierung und Förderung der Vielfalt. Die Veröffentlichung enthält außerdem: • Zwei Sonderkapitel, die aktuellen Themen gewidmet sind. Das erste behandelt die Frage der Steuerung der Migrationszuflüsse durch Quoten und Plafonds und evaluiert die Effizienz entsprechender Instrumente. Das zweite analysiert die Wechselbeziehungen zwischen Migration, Rücküberweisungen und wirtschaftlicher Entwicklung der Entsendeländer aus einem anderen Blickwinkel. • Länderbeiträge, diesmal in neuer Form, die die jüngsten Entwicklungen bei Migrationsbewegungen und -politik beschreiben und anhand neu gestalteter standardisierter Tabellen veranschaulichen. • Einen statistischen Anhang mit den neuesten Daten über Ausländer und im Ausland geborene Personen sowie über Migrationsströme und Einbürgerungen.

    Abstract: Cette Ligne directrice est conçue pour évaluer des effets, sur l'émergence de plantules et le début de croissance des plantes supérieures, après exposition à la substance d'essai appliquée à la surface du sol ou dans le sol. Des semences sont placées en contact avec le sol traité par la substance d'essai. Les effets sont évalués au bout de 14 à 21 jours après émergence de 50 % des plantules dans le groupe témoin. Les effets observés sont l’évaluation visuelle de l’émergence des plantules, les mesures de biomasse, la hauteur des pousses et les effets nocifs visibles sur différentes parties de la plante. Selon le but de l'étude, l'essai peut être effectué afin de déterminer la courbe dose-réponse, ou, à un(e) taux/concentration unique, comme essai limite. Une analyse statistique appropriée permet de calculer une concentration efficace (CEx) ou le taux d'application efficace (TEx) pour les paramètres d'intérêt les plus sensibles. En outre, la concentration sans effet observé (CSEO) et la concentration minimale avec effet observé (CMEO) peuvent être calculées dans ce test.

    Keywords: Environment
    Abstract: This Test Guideline is designed to assess effects on seedling emergence and early growth of higher plants following exposure to the test substance applied to the soil surface or into the soil. Seeds are placed in contact with soil treated with the test substance and evaluated for effects following usually 14 to 21 days after 50 % emergence of the seedlings in the control group. Endpoints measured are visual assessment of seedling emergence, biomass measurements, shoot height, and the visible detrimental effects on different parts of the plant. The test can be conducted in order to determine the dose-response curve, or at a single concentration/rate as a limit test, according to the aim of the study. An appropriate statistical analysis is used to obtain effective concentration ECx or effective application rate ERx for the most sensitive parameter(s) of interest. Also, the no observed effect concentration (NOEC) and lowest observed effect concentration (LOEC) can be calculated in this test.

    Abstract: Cette Ligne directrice décrit la méthode du brassage lent, laquelle permet la détermination des valeurs logarithmiques du coefficient de partage 1-octanol/eau (Poe) allant jusqu’à 8.2. Le coefficient de partage entre l'eau et 1-octanol (Poe) est défini comme étant le rapport des concentrations à l’équilibre de la substance d'essai pure dans du 1-octanol saturé avec de l'eau (Co) et dans de l’eau saturée avec du 1-octanol (Ce). Afin de déterminer le coefficient de partage, l'eau, le 1-octanol, et la substance d'essai sont équilibrés les uns avec les autres à température constante dans un réacteur thermostaté à 25° C, à l’abri de la lumière du jour et soumis à une agitation douce. L'échange entre les phases est accéléré par l'agitation. Les concentrations de la substance d'essai sont déterminées dans les deux phases. Chaque détermination de Poe est effectuée en utilisant au moins trois expériences de brassage lent indépendantes dans des conditions identiques. La régression employée pour démontrer que l'équilibre a été atteint doit s'appuyer sur les résultats d’au moins de quatre déterminations de Co/Ce à quatre moments ponctuels successifs.

    Abstract: Les Accords Commerciaux Régionaux (ACR)ont vu leur nombre et leur importance croître considérablement depuis le début des années 1990 et ils incluent de plus en plus des chapitres et des dispositions régissant les questions liées à la concurrence. Cette étude fournit une classification des dispositions relatives à la concurrence dans une sélection d'ACR. Elle fait la distinction entre différents types de dispositions portant sur la coopération et la coordination entre les autorités de la concurrence, ainsi que celles régissant directement les comportements anticoncurrentiels. Elle contient également des informations sur les différents mécanismes de règlement des différends, sur les dispositions concernant le traitement spécial et différencié et les clauses spécifiques à la concurrence concernant la non- discrimination, la transparence, le traitement équitable et sur les recours commerciaux et l'exclusion des mesures antidumping. L'étude analyse aussi le rôle et l'étendue des dispositions relatives à la concurrence et distingue deux familles d'accords : ceux qui contiennent principalement des dispositions de fond sur les comportements anticoncurrentiels et ceux qui ciblent davantage les règles de coordination et de coopération.

    Abstract: These Guidelines offer principles and best practices for the licensing of genetic inventions used in human health care. They are targeted at all those involved with innovation and the provision of services in health, and particularly at those involved in the licensing of such inventions. The Guidelines are intended to assist both OECD and Non-OECD governments in the development of governmental policies as well as in their efforts to encourage appropriate behaviour in the licensing and transferring of genetic inventions. Overall, the Guidelines seek to foster the development and delivery to the market of products and services based on genetic inventions, such as therapeutics and diagnostics, in order to more effectively and efficiently address health care needs in both OECD member and non member countries.

    Keywords: Environment
    Abstract: Cette méthode d’essai est conçue pour évaluer la toxicité de substances sur des plantes dulcicoles du genre Lemna (lentille d’eau). Des monocultures du genre Lemna (Lemna gibba et Lemna minor habituellement), en phase de croissance exponentielle, sont exposées à au moins cinq concentrations de la substance d'essai sur une période de sept jours. L'objectif de l'essai est de quantifier les effets de la substance sur la multiplication végétative des lentilles d'eau durant cette période, à partir de l’évaluation de plusieurs paramètres. L'essai limite correspond à un niveau de dose de 100 mg/l. Cette étude inclut la mesure du pH, de l'intensité lumineuse, des concentrations de la substance d'essai, le comptage du nombre de thalles et la mesure d'un autre paramètre au moins (superficie totale des thalles, poids sec ou poids frais). La concentration entraînant un pourcentage donné d'inhibition du taux de croissance (ou du rendement) est déterminée en fonction des taux de croissance spécifiques moyens (ou du rendement) relevés dans une série de solutions expérimentales et exprimée sous la forme CxEt (ou CxEr). Un autre effet mesuré est le rendement. En outre, la concentration minimale avec effet observé (CMEO) et la concentration sans effet observé (CSEO) peuvent être déterminées par un calcul statistique.

    Abstract: Cette Ligne directrice est une méthode de dépistage pour l'évaluation de la biodégradabilité facile de substance chimique. La substance d'essai, normalement à 20 mg C/L, représentant la seule source de carbone et d’énergie, est incubée (pendant 28 jours normalement) dans des bouteilles scellées, en aérobiose, contenant un milieu tampon composé de sels minéraux, dans lequel a été ensemencée une population mixte de micro-organismes. Afin de vérifier la procédure d'essais, une substance de référence (éthylèneglycol, benzoate de sodium ou aniline et 1-octanol), à la biodégradabilité connue, doit être testée en parallèle. On recommande d’analyser trois réplicats de flacon après un nombre suffisant d'intervalles de temps. De même, au moins cinq flacons (les flacons d'essai, les flacons témoins blanc, et les flacons avec la substance de référence) sont analysés à la fin de l'essai, afin de calculer les intervalles de confiance à 95% pour le pourcentage moyen de biodégradation. L'évolution de CO2 dégagé par la biodégradation aérobie finale de la substance d'essai est déterminée en mesurant l’excèdent de carbone inorganique (CI) produit dans les flacons d'essai par rapport à celui produit dans les flacons témoins blanc ne contenant que le milieu ensemencé. Le degré de biodégradation est exprimé en pourcentage de la production maximale théorique de CI (ThCI), basé sur la quantité de substance d'essai ajoutée au départ. Une biodégradation 〉60% de la ThCI, dans l’intervalle de 10 jours au cours de cet essai, démontre que la substance d'essai est facilement biodégradable en aérobiose.

    Abstract: Comment imaginer que la libéralisation des échanges de biens et services soit sujette à controverse ? Pourquoi un pays voudrait-il maintenir des obstacles qui empêchent ces échanges ? Telles sont les questions qu’avaient à l’esprit les ministres des pays de l’OMC lorsqu’ils ont demandé, en novembre 2001, l’ouverture de négociations visant à réduire ou à éliminer les obstacles aux échanges de biens et services environnementaux. Néanmoins, ils n’ont pas défini ces biens et services, laissant les négociateurs s’en charger. La présente série d’études vise à aider les négociateurs à s’orienter parmi les problèmes nombreux et complexes qui ont été soulevés au fil du débat international sur la libéralisation des échanges de biens et services environnementaux. Outre qu’ils expliquent les conditions dans lesquelles ont été établies les deux premières listes de ces biens (résultant d’initiatives distinctes de l’OCDE et du Forum de coopération économique Asie-Pacifique), les différents chapitres : Étudient plusieurs problèmes pratiques que pose la classification des biens environnementaux, dont celle des biens qui ont deux utilisations Donnent des exemples concrets de synergies entre commerce de services environnementaux et commerce de biens environnementaux Synthétisent les résultats de plusieurs études nationales sur les biens et services environnementaux conduites par l’OCDE et d’autres organisations intergouvernementales Le présent ouvrage est un compendium de documents de travail du Groupe de travail conjoint sur les échanges et l’environnement.

    Abstract: Angesichts eines drastischen Rückgangs der Beschäftigung im landwirtschaftlichen Sektor sind die ländlichen Gebiete im OECD-Raum heute von einem breiten Spektrum verschiedener Motoren des Wirtschaftswachstums abhängig. Die zunehmende Globalisierung, verbesserte Kommunikationsmöglichkeiten und gesunkeneTransportkosten sind zusätzliche Faktoren, die den wirtschaftlichen Wandel im ländlichen Raum beschleunigen. Theorie und Praxis der Politik für den ländlichen Raum haben inzwischen erkannt, dass es mit finanzieller Umverteilung und agrarpolitischen Maßnahmen nicht möglich ist, das Potenzial dieser wirtschaftlichen Antriebsfaktoren auszuschöpfen. Dieser thematische Bericht sucht daher, den Paradigmenwandel in der Politik für die ländliche Entwicklung, der diesen wirtschaftlichenVeränderungen Rechnung tragen soll, wie auch den zur Umsetzung dieser Politik nötigen neuen Governance-Ansatz zu erläutern.

    Abstract: This paper seeks to identify the way in which opportunities for corruption arise in the context of procurement. In looking at the government as a buyer, it considers the position of the procurement officer acting as agent on behalf of the elected government. Whilst the paper does not ignore the significant impact of corruption at the political level (either for the personal gain of politicians or for the benefit of political parties, for example), it concentrates on the opportunities this agency relationship offers to the procurement officer to deviate from his duty to act in the public interest. The paper investigates the divergence between the agent’s personal interest and that of the government and of the public and narrows down the opportunity for such deviations to the existence of informational asymmetries.

    Abstract: Over the past few years China has emerged as a major player in the global economy with a pivotal position in global production, trade and, increasingly, finance. In the context of large imbalances in world growth rates, China has helped sustain world economic expansion, especially in the Asia Pacific region. China is also an important force in global financial flows. The country is one of the world’s largest recipients of FDI inflows. Moreover, China, along with other Asian economies, has been accumulating reserves, thereby supporting the present configuration of exchange rates in major OECD regions. The country is now a major investor in key asset markets, such as the international market in government securities.

    Abstract: The centralised wage agreements have helped to contain inflation. There is evidence that wage increases were more moderate when a central agreement was concluded than in periods when no central agreement was reached. Nevertheless, there is also evidence that centralised wage setting has had some drawbacks in terms of reducing employment among low-skilled and younger workers because of high minimum wage floors. In the current wage setting system there are components that allow for greater relative wage flexibility. These should be used more extensively. The role of the government in future agreements should be to encourage greater relative wage flexibility within the current bargaining framework. This paper relates to the 2006 Economic Survey of Finland (www.oecd.org/eco/surveys/finland).

    Abstract: This review explores the opportunities for better regulation within the Swiss institutional framework. In recent years, the rate of growth in Switzerland has been slower than the OECD average. If this continues, the country will be challenged to face the financial demands of a rapidly ageing population, and to maintain living standards. The Federal Government has started to implement a growth-oriented reform strategy, but further structural changes are required. This report discusses the need for promoting internal market competition, for adopting a country-wide strategy for regulatory quality and for improving the performance of the infrastructure sectors. It presents an overall picture, set within a macroeconomic context, of regulatory achievements and challenges including regulatory quality, competition policy, and market openness. Its special focus is on frameworks for high quality regulation in the air transport, rail, postal and telecommunications services as well as electricity reform.

    Keywords: Nuclear Energy ; France ; Konferenzschrift ; Kerntechnik
    Abstract: With a declining number of nuclear data evaluators in the world and an increasing demand for high-quality data, there is a risk that evaluators will concentrate on producing new nuclear data to the detriment of developing new models and methods for evaluating existing data. In this context, it is essential to identify the basic physics issues that are going to be important for future nuclear data evaluation processes. At the same time, demand for new types of data, which will be needed in emerging nuclear applications, could warrant new evaluation techniques that are presently only used in the context of fundamental research and not in nuclear data production. These proceedings present the main findings of the "Perspectives on Nuclear Data for the Next Decade" workshop, which explored innovative approaches to nuclear data evaluation with the aim of opening new perspectives, building new research programmes and investigating prospects for international collaboration.

    Abstract: Hydrogen has the potential to play an important role as a sustainable and environmentally acceptable energy carrier in the 21st century. Since natural sources of pure hydrogen are extremely limited, it is necessary to develop technologies to produce large quantities of hydrogen economically. The currently dominant technology for producing hydrogen is based on reforming fossil fuels, a process which releases greenhouse gases. Hydrogen produced by water cracking, using heat and surplus electricity from nuclear power plants, requires no fossil fuels and results in lower greenhouse gas emissions. This conference proceedings presents the state of the art in the nuclear production of hydrogen and describes its associated scientific and technical challenges.

    Abstract: Building on a recent groundbreaking OECD/World Bank seminar, this volume explores whether and how trade liberalisation can contribute to achieving universal service goals and the types of complementary policies required. It focuses on experiences in four sectors - telecommunications, water and sanitation, financial services, and electricity. The unique multi-sector perspective taken in this book, together with the national case studies, yield insights which can help countries promote their universal access goals. A horizontal assessment also helps determine how far the current services negotiations in the WTO, under the General Agreement on Trade in Services, can aid the attainment of universal service goals.

    Abstract: Subsidies are pervasive in OECD countries and are among the most powerful public policy instruments. But they often introduce unintended consequences, such as budget deficits, pollution, unemployment and trade distortions. This report contains the proceedings of an OECD workshop on subsidy reform held in October 2005 under the auspices of the OECD programme on sustainable development. It provides an overview of approaches for assessing subsidies and associated taxes, and looks at country experiences in reforming subsidies in the agriculture, fisheries, industry, and transport sectors.

    Abstract: Transport activity continues to cause large adverse impacts on the environment, human health and the economy. But is a negative impact of transport on the environment a necessary consequence of economic growth? This book illustrates that decoupling the environmental impacts of transport from economic growth is achievable, through the efficient use of charges, fees, taxes and other economic instruments. These economic approaches can complement regulatory measures to encourage a shift towards more environmentally-friendly modes of transport, such as from road to certain forms of rail transport. Other factors which could help to decouple transport impacts from economic growth are improvements in freight transport logistics, and dematerialisation.

    Abstract: The Russian Federation has undergone a major reform of the pension system which has resulted in a shift from a single, publicly managed system to one supplemented by a mandatory, privately managed occupational funded component and voluntary pension arrangements. The reform aimed to tackle a set of problems of demographic, social and economic order inherent to retirement income provision and was viewed as a way to improve old-age security of retirees in Russia by ensuring long-term financial and fiscal stability of the pension system and adequacy of pension benefits. This book examines these reforms and new challenges related to the reforms. Most prominent among the challenges is the need to further strengthen the pension system regulatory capacity and enforcement powers of the authorities in charge of the oversight of private pension institutions.

    Abstract: This book sets out how much aid OECD countries are already providing towards trade-related activities in developing countries and reviews the effectiveness of existing programmes. It argues that reinforcing mutual accountability at the local level, together with a global review mechanism, would enhance the impact of Aid for Trade.

    Abstract: The prospect of further trade liberalisation sometimes attracts a noisy public discourse, particularly with respect to the possible implications for developing countries. This volume considers trade and development from an economic perspective, aiming to examine these emotive issues using empirical approaches and dispassionate analysis. What are the potential welfare impacts on developing countries from further liberalisation? What economic adjustments would such liberalisation entail? What policy options exist for developing countries seeking to seize on new market opportunities while responding to the associated structural challenges? Trading Up: Economic Perspectives on Development Issues in the Multilateral Trading System delivers new insights from the latest OECD and World Bank research on these questions and related topics.

    Abstract: Agriculture is no longer the dominant sector in rural economies in OECD countries. But it is still the key sector in managing the land, and many ancillary industries are dependant on agriculture. Both agricultural and rural policy are changing to respond to society's concerns regarding food safety, food security, animal welfare, environmental protection and the viability of rural areas. These proceedings of the OECD Workshop on Coherence of Agricultural and Rural Development Policies examined these issues through thematic studies and country experiences. They find that rural is not synonymous with agriculture and agriculture is not always rural as much agricultural production occurs in peri-urban areas. The goals of agricultural and rural policies are different, but policy coherence is essential.

    Abstract: This publication reveals a number of interesting examples of innovative programmes using ICT that can increase access to learning out-of-school youths and adults. The papers show that ICT can be one way -- but by no means the only way -- to improve pathways to learning. It can do this by tailoring learning to the needs and preferred learning styles of the disadvantaged, and it can make learning more interesting by providing immediate feedback. A third message is that just as adult learning itself has been the under-funded and under-appreciated Cinderella of the formal learning spectrum, so the application of ICT within adult learning has tended to lag behind much of the rest of the education system. The present volume provides some cautionary remarks on the recent past and opens up some significant opportunities for the future.

    Abstract: The Development Effectiveness of Food Aid: Does Tying Matter? provides a detailed look into two food aid issues. First, the study assesses the effectiveness of the various ways in which food aid can promote food security and poverty alleviation. Second, the study demonstrates that food aid in-kind carries substantial efficiency costs, conservatively estimated as at least 30% on average. In contrast, most local purchases or regionally sourced imports are relatively efficient ways of providing food aid. Thus, there is scope for considerable efficiency gains by switching to less restricted sourcing of food. The study therefore argues that, in most circumstances, financial aid (cash) is the preferable way to fund direct distribution of food or to provide budgetary support for general development or project assistance.

Mit den vorliegenden OECD-Leitsätzen zu Corporate Governance in staatseigenen Unternehmen wird diese gravierende Lücke geschlossen.

    Abstract: Energy, transport, water and telecommunications all are essential to future development and growth. However, infrastructure investment requirements over the coming decades will be massive, running into trillions of dollars. How will the needed investments be financed, given that OECD populations are ageing fast and public finances tightening? How will such factors as urbanisation, climate change and globalisation affect the development of infrastructures in OECD countries? And how will the role of the public sector and private actors evolve over time? These are just some of the questions this OECD report addresses in this long-term assessment of the future of infrastructures in both OECD and non-OECD countries.

Wide ranging reforms liberalising domestic and foreign trade, and lowering support to agriculture were implemented in the 1990s. This first comprehensive OECD review of agriculture in South Africa assesses agricultural policies in the context of liberalisation reforms taken, new market pressures, land reform, and Black Economic Empowerment measures and makes a series of policy recommendations.

The findings of the study are based on a survey of the use of market-like instruments in OECD fisheries in which the key characteristics of these instruments in different countries are identified. It finds that market-like instruments have generally improved the economic efficiency of the sector, and have helped to ensure the sustainability of fish stocks.

    Abstract: Turkish domestic equity markets and inward foreign investment are poised to grow rapdily but only if corporate governance standards are high enough to protect minority shareholders. This report evaluates the extent to which the OECD Principles of Corporate Governance have been implemented in Turkey, looking at both the legal and regulatory framework as well as company practices. It finds that significant reforms to the corporate governance framework have already been introduced, and supports additional legislative reforms that are already in progress. Looking ahead, the report argues that it is time to move into the next important phase in policy reform, and makes a series of recommendations for further strengthening Turkeys corporate governance structures.

    Abstract: Some 500 million USD are spent annually on fisheries development projects. But fisheries access agreements and trade policies are sometimes applied in ways that dampen developing countries' ability to benefit fully from their rich marine resources. Also, many development projects do not pay sufficient regard to the sustainability issues that are a key for the future of the fishing sector. This publication, a compilation of papers from the Workshop on Policy Coherence for Development in Fisheries, addresses these issues.

This book analyses the strengths and weaknesses of the Swiss health system. It weighs them against the key policy objectives of health-system effectiveness and responsiveness, access to care and equitable financing, efficient supply of services, and financial sustainability. The report assesses new proposals for reform of the health system and provides policy recommendations to help address current and upcoming challenges facing the Swiss authorities.

    Parallel Title: Parallelausg. Transport et commerce international
    Keywords: Transport
    Abstract: With the removal of many trade policy barriers, further international economic integration depends largely on the reduction of trade costs originating in the transport sector. This Round Table presents three papers focusing on the structure and development of international transport costs over the past decades and the benefits to be expected from investment in international transport facilities and the reduction of the costs of crossing borders. The papers were provided by David Hummels (Purdue University), Anthony Venables (London School of Economics and Centre for Economic Policy Research) as well as Harry Broadman and John S. Wilson (World Bank).

    Parallel Title: Parallelausg. Essai n 310 : Biodégradabilité facile - dégagement de CO2 dans des flacons hermétiquement clos (essai de l'espace libre au-dessus du liquide)
    Keywords: Environment
    Abstract: This Test Guideline is a screening method for the evaluation of ready biodegradability of chemical. The test substance, normally at 20 mg C/L, as the sole source of carbon and energy, is incubated (during 28 days normally) in sealed bottles with aerobic condition containing a buffer-mineral salts medium, which has been inoculated with a mixed population of micro-organisms. In order to check the test procedure, a reference substance (aniline, sodium benzoate or ethylene glycol and 1-octanol) of known biodegradability should be tested in parallel. It is recommended that triplicate bottles be analysed after a sufficient number of time intervals. Also at least five test bottles (from test vessels, blank controls, and vessels with the reference substance) are analysed at the end of the test, to enable 95% confidence intervals to be calculated for the mean percentage biodegradation value. The CO2 evolution resulting from the ultimate aerobic biodegradation of the test substance is determined by measuring the Inorganic Carbon (IC) produced in the test bottles in excess of that produced in blank vessels containing inoculated medium only. The extent of biodegradation is expressed as a percentage of the theoretical maximum IC production (ThIC), based on the quantity of test substance added initially. Biodegradation 〉60% ThIC within the 10-d window in this test demonstrates that the test substance is readily biodegradable under aerobic conditions.

    Parallel Title: Parallelausg. Les transports et la décentralisation
    Keywords: Transport
    Abstract: Over the past decades, many OECD countries' transport sectors have become more decentralised. This report examines whether the economic benefits and experiences of decentralisation have been positive. It finds that the answers vary according to the mode of transport, the type of decentralisation, and transport users' representation in the process of decision-making.

    Series Statement: Energy Policies of IEA Countries
    Keywords: Energy ; Belgium
    Abstract: This comprehensive review of Belgium's energy policies and programmes covers each major type of energy (oil, natural gas, electricity, nuclear, and renewables) as well as topics that cut across types of energy including energy and environment, R&D, and market regulation. The review finds measured progress in electricity market liberalisation but expresses concern about what will replace the nuclear capacity that is being phased out. Internal integration needs improvement and Belgian customers could benefit from more competition. A series of recommendations are made to address these and other issues.

    Abstract: The development of information and communication technologies and networks, and in particular that of the Internet, has gone hand in hand with the emergence of new types of malevolent actions called cyber-crime: viruses, worms, Trojan horses, and the like. While a number of factors make a strong case for governmental action in the area of information security, there are also important limits to what governments can achieve. This review, the first in a series of risk management policy reviews being conducted by the OECD, identifies areas of good practice in Norway's policies for information security, as well as areas where improvements could be made. For areas that could benefit from improvement, it proposes opportunities for action and, when possible, suggests alternatives.

    Keywords: Governance ; Economics ; China, People’s Republic ; China ; Öffentlicher Sektor ; Finanzwirtschaft ; Wirtschaftspolitik ; Wirtschaftsentwicklung ; Politische Steuerung
    Abstract: Il ressort du rapport de l'OCDE sur la Gouvernance en Chine que l'économie chinoise témoigne certes d'une dynamique impressionnante depuis qu'elle fait intervenir de plus en plus le libre jeu des mécanismes du marché. Cet ouvrage examine les enjeux que la Chine rencontre en matière de gouvernance, notamment l'organisation des services publics, la gestion des actifs du Trésor, la gestion réglementaire, l'administration en ligne, la fiscalité et les dépenses publiques, la lutte contre la corruption, la mise à la disposition de renseignements fiables. Il est aussi question de secteurs définis où l'insuffisance des réformes en matière de gouvernance a un effet sur les grandes orientations, à savoir le secteur financier, l'agriculture, la protection de l'environnement, le marché du travail et la protection sociale, l'éducation et la concurrence.
