SUBSIDIES  
REPLIES  TO QUESTIONS1 POSED BY NEW ZEALAND  REGARDING  THE 
NEW AND FULL N OTIFICATION OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION2 
The following communication, dated and received on 25 February 2021,  is being circulated at the 
request of the delegation of the Russian Federation . 
 
_______________  
 
 
State Program of the Russian Federation "Development of the Fisheries Industry " 
Question 1  
Does this programme include support for Russia's vessel building programmes, either 
through national or regional subsidies?  
Reply : 
The State Programme "Development of the Fisheries Industry " included  subsidies  to fishing 
organizations in the f orm of partial compensation of interest payments  on loans for construction and 
modernization of fishing vessels, fish p rocessing infrastructure , and fisheries products storage 
facilities. Such subsidies were granted  under the State Programme from 2014 to 2019.  
Question 2  
Has the reported quantum of subsidies notified for 2017 and 2018 materially changed in 
2019 and 2020 in order to accommodate subsidies provided for the construction costs of 
vessels and processing facilities within the Russian government's programme of 
"investment quotas", which has resulted in the construction of 3 out of 10 supertrawlers 
so far?  
Reply : 
There we re no significant changes in the amount of subsidies provided under the State Programme 
"Development of the Fisheries Industry " in 2019 -2020 compared to 2017 -2018. Currently, there are 
no subsidies relating to  construction  of fishing vessels and fish processing facilities under the 
State  Programme . 
The d etailed  information  on the amount of subsidies  granted under the State Programme in 
2019-2020 will be provided in the respective  new and full notification of the Russian Federation for  
that period .
