Resumen

This Recommendation encourages the contracting parties and cooperating non-contracting parties to take further actions to improve the conservation status of cetacean species and make every effort to support global and regional actions to investigate on the most appropriate measures to mitigate bycatch and depredation and implement them, as necessary, in close collaboration with the fishing communities and other relevant stakeholders. Bycatch mitigation measures shall be accompanied by an appropriate monitoring to establish the efficacy of the actions and may include, inter alia: fishing gear modifications and alternative fishing gear types, implementation of maximum potential bycatch thresholds, and time‐area fishing restrictions and closures. The contracting parties and cooperating non-contracting parties shall further enhance the collection and monitoring of data and the reporting of information on the incidental catch rates of cetaceans, in line with the FAO technical manual on Monitoring incidental catch of vulnerable species in the Mediterranean and Black Sea fisheries: methodology for data collection and the Data Collection Reference Framework.
