The following are the proposed catch limits to be set for quota stocks in December 2018.
The Marine Management Organisation (MMO) sets monthly catch limits for quota species to ensure the UK stays within the overall limit set by the EU. These limits apply to all under 10 meter vessels and the over 10 meter vessels that are not in a co-operative (Producer Organisation).
Please contact the MMO if you have any comment to make about the suggested catch limits which will be put into force on 1 November 2018.
All catch limits to stay the same in December 2018 as November 2018 except the following reduction in by-catch of Undulate Ray in Area 7D from 100kg per month to 50kg per month.
Comments to be received no later than 8am on 26 November 2018.
