The West of ScotlandNephrops TAC was rolled over, but new scientific evidence has emerged since theadvice was offered and we intend to revisit this in the course of the comingyear.Our efforts ensured thatmost of the TACs for Scotland’s key whitefish stocks including North Seacod, whiting and anglerfish were rolled over, despite vocal efforts tointroduce quota cuts. The main exceptions to this were Northern Saithe(coley), where a 15% increase was secured and North Sea haddock, where a 55%increase was secured.
