Commission proposes fishing opportunities in the Baltic Sea for 2014

The European Commission has tabled its proposal on fishing opportunities in the Baltic Sea for 2014. 

This is the annual proposal for the amount of fish which can be caught by EU fishermen from the main commercial fish stocks in the Baltic Sea next year. The proposals are based on scientific advice and aim to make fisheries in the Baltic Sea environmentally and economically sustainable in the short and long term. This is in line with the key principles of the recently agreed reform of the Common Fisheries Policy.
