Abstract

Precautionary TACs shall apply to stocks for which no scientifically-based evaluation of fishing possibilities is available specifically for the year in which the TACs are to be set; analytical TACs shall apply otherwise. When fixing TACs in accordance with article 8 of Regulation (EC) No. 3760/92, the Council shall decide: which stocks are subject to a precautionary TAC and which stocks are subject to an analytical TAC, on the basis of scientific advice available on the stocks, the stocks to which articles 3 or 4 shall not apply, on the basis of the biological status of the stocks and of commitments reached with third countries, the stocks to which the deductions envisaged in article 5 shall apply, on the basis of their biological status.
