a

Rules for catch limits for by-catch species per SSRU, applicable within total by-catch limits per Subarea:

  • skates and rays: 5 % of the catch limit for Dissostichus spp. or 50 tonnes, whichever is greater;

  • Macrourus spp.: 16 % of the catch limit for Dissostichus spp. or 20 tonnes, whichever is greater, except in Statistical Division 58.4.3a and Statistical Subarea 88.1;

  • other species: 20 tonnes per SSRU.

b

Catch limit to permit Spain to undertake a depletion experiment in 2012/2013.
