billion annually (US$ 35.9/ha/a). The DOI for each country is calculated by taking the percentage of fisheries income as part of the national GDP (averaged from years 2007–2011). 119 After subtracting 20 per cent from the DOI, the MSY DOI comes to US$ 3.2 billion (US$ 28.8/ha). Taking off another 10 per cent in order to avoid double-counting for fish nurseries, the MSY DOI comes to US$ 2.9 billion (US$ 25.9/ha) (see also appendix C). 120 Figure 15 shows the estimated DOI for each CCLME country and for the IUU catch. Morocco receives the most revenue with a DOI of US$ 2.4 billion, and IUU landings have the second greatest impact, at US$ 808.2 million. 121

Figure 14 shows the DOI and sustainable (or MSY) DOI for each GCLME country. IUU fishing, with a MSY DOI (minus 10% for fish nurseries) of US$ 3.2 billion, results in more revenue than that of any GCLME country, including Ghana, Nigeria and Angola, which have sustainable DOI values of US$ 3.0 billion, US$ 2.4 billion and 1.9 billion respectively (see also appendix B). 118

The total DOI (2007) for the CCLME countries, which includes a 25 per cent addition for IUU fishing, is estimated at US$ 4.04
