    Abstract

    The Secretariat was requested to generate risk profiles of overrunning catch allocations across a range of vessel capacity (or catch) and fleet sizes to help understand whether reporting requirements for the krill fishery require revision in the future. The fishery capacity and the capacity utilisation were calculated to monitor trends in krill fisheries and daily catches. These data were used to generate the risk profiles of overrunning catch allocations across a range of vessel capacity and fleet size that is presented in this paper.
