Details
MMO has launched an online survey to canvass a wide range of views as it develops the Celtic Sea and Western Channel Fisheries Management Plan (FMP) for demersal stocks in ICES areas 7e, 7f, 7g, 7h (Welsh and English waters only).
The FMP covers demersal species such as pollack, cod, monkfish/anglerfish, nephrops and skates and rays.
This online survey will help improve our understanding of the fisheries, including gaps in data, current issues and potential future management measures.
This survey will close on 31 January 2025.
Data collected from respondents will be used in the development of the FMP, which will subsequently go to public consultation and is due to be published by the end of 2025.
Anonymised and combined responses to this survey will be summarised with the published FMP documents. Please check out our privacy notice which explains how your data will be collected, stored and used.
Please email the FMP team at FMP@marinemanagement.org.uk if you would like any further information on this FMP.
