MMO is leading development of the Celtic Sea and Western Channel demersal Fisheries Management Plan (FMP) which covers demersal stocks in English and Welsh waters in ICES areas 7e, 7f, 7g, 7h.
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.
