Abstract

This Recommendation amends the Recommendation GFCM/41/2017/4 and determines the allocation of the total allowable catch for turbot in GSA 29 for the years 2020–2022. The concerned contracting party and cooperating non-contracting party shall inform the GFCM Secretariat when 90 percent of the quota of a contracting party and cooperating non-contracting party is exceeded. If the total catch exceeds the TAC in a given year, the excess amount shall be paid back by contracting parties and cooperating non-contracting parties and the excess quantities shall be deducted the following year from the adjusted quota of the concerned contracting party and cooperating non-contracting party. A working group shall be established in the context of the Compliance Committee in order to support the implementation of the conservation and management measures of the multiannual management plan and to ensure the traceability of turbot catches. Furthermore, contracting parties and cooperating non-contracting parties shall issue a valid catch documentation scheme certificate for the purpose of identifying the origin of turbot catch in the GFCM area of application.
