The methods of treating resonance levels in statistical Hauser-Feshbach theory are reviewed. Special attention is paid to the fluctuations introduced by intermediate structure in the fission channels. The statistical theory is applied to a number of problems in the analysis of fission cross-sections of the actinides. It is shown how information on the structure of highly deformed nuclei may be obtained from such studies.
