The Commission also highlighted the improved scientific information on fish stocks that was available: the number of data-poor stocks for which no quantitative advice was available had been greatly reduced since last year.
Komisjon rõhutas ka kalavarusid käsitlevate teaduslike andmete taseme paranemist: eelmise aastaga võrreldes on märkimisväärselt vähenenud nende kalavarude arv, mille kohta on andmed puudulikud ning mille puhul ei ole antud kvantitatiivseid nõuandeid.
