The proposed measures have been established taking into account available scientific advice and, in particular, the reports drawn up by the International Council for the exploration of the Sea (ICES) and the Scientific, Technical and Economic Committee for Fisheries (STECF).
Kavandatud meetmete kehtestamisel võeti arvesse kättesaadavaid teaduslikke nõuandeid ning eelkõige Rahvusvahelise Mereuurimise Nõukogu (ICES) ning kalanduse teadus-, tehnika- ja majanduskomitee (STECF) aruandeid.
