Advice Sentence

Please note: The present advice replaces the advice given in June 2018 for catches in 2019 and 2020. ICES advises that when the precautionary approach is applied, catches in each of the years 2019 and 2020 should not exceed 590 tonnes. In order to ensure the stock in this functional unit (FU) is exploited sustainably, management should be implemented at the functional unit level.
