This Resolution applies to all commercial and recreational fishing activities in geographical subareas 1 to 27, taking into account potential differences in minimum conservation reference size between the GFCM subregions. The contracting parties and cooperating non-contracting parties are encouraged to only harvest species that are above the minimum conservation reference size in order to minimize the bycatch of juveniles during fishing operations. Furthermore, the contracting parties and cooperating non-contracting parties shall systematically report information on the catch and undersized specimens of all harvested species, in line with the technical manual of the GFCM Data Collection Reference Framework.
