Synopsis (short abstract) The basic purpose was to monitor the observance of the Code, measure its impact, and identify those issues which should receive priority attention in the future. The SECOND Questionnaire contained 144 questions (slightly more than the FIRST one in order to accommodate PIC), arranged according to the Articles of the Code. As in the case of the FIRST one, it was a "mirror-image" of the Code and sought to determine the extent of observance of each provision of the Code. An attempt has been made to confine the Narrative/Graphic Summary section to comparing the "state of affairs" in 1993/94 versus the pre-Code situation in 1986, based on a number of key aspects or key indicators that cover most of the main elements of the Code. In order to bring out deficiencies and shortcomings more clearly "into focus", in certain cases where the FAO questionnaire allowed for intermediate answers in between a simple "yes" or "no", e.g., "occasionally" or "partly", all responses other than "yes" were grouped together as "no". Thus, in such cases, a slightly more negative conclusion may have been drawn than is the actual case.

Technical Guidelines are issued to elaborate specific articles of the CoC and related technical aspects of pesticide management. These guidelines provide a framework to establish or strengthen national legislation, institutions, policies and strategies for pest and pesticide management. These guidelines are developed by the FAO/WHO Joint Meeting on Pesticide Management (JMPM) to ensure an informed and independent process. Older guidelines may have been reviewed through different mechanisms, but always involved broad expert peer review. This Annotated list of Technical Guidelines for the implementation of the International Code of Conduct on the Distribution and Use of Pesticides provides a brief overview of all Guidelines and their purpose. It is aimed as a hand-out for meetings related to pesticide management to enhance familiarity with, and use of, the available technical guidelines. The annotated list follows the same structure as the actual list of guidelines on the FAO website
