The 57 partners of the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT), including the EU, US, Brazil, Morocco, and Japan, will virtually meet to discuss the management of various fish species, including bluefin and tropical tunas, and the shortfin mako. The meeting aims to address challenges like extended quotas and unreported catches, while scientific advisors suggest maintaining the Total Allowable Catches (TAC) for bluefin tuna.

The eastern bluefin tuna, which for many years has been ICCAT's “star” fishery, is an example of recovery and, in fact, demands for a quota increase are rampant among the Spanish fleet, paraphrased even by the Government. Scientists recommend maintaining the Total Allowable Catches (TAC), currently 36,000 tons (6,100 for Spain) while advancing in a ...
