The Secretary General of Fisheries has stated that Spain will defend the establishment of fishing quotas that benefit the fleet and ensure sustainable fishing during the upcoming EU Council of Ministers meeting. The Spanish Presidency will work to improve Total Allowable Catch (TAC) and fishing quotas for 2024, particularly for species such as crayfish and sole. The Spanish Presidency also aims to establish multi-annual quotas for certain species starting in 2024 to provide stability and better planning for shipowners.
