The Working Group will undertake areas of the work identified in the adopted agenda in subgroups. Progress reports will be given from each subgroup to plenary sessions, with the opportunity for additional discussion and consideration. The prioritisation and scheduling of subgroups will be directed by the Convener.
Subject to the views of the Working Group, the following Subgroups will be established:
- Subgroup on assessments – review preliminary assessments and further develop stock assessments and estimation of precautionary catch limits of target species. It is anticipated that assessments will be completed and reviewed by the end of the first week and assessment results will be used to provide advice on precautionary catch limits (Agenda Item 4).
- Subgroup on research to inform current or future assessments – review information from research fishing in 2014/15 and review and evaluate submitted research plans for research fishing under Conservation Measures 21-02 and 24-01, including the relevant advice of WG-SAM-15 (Agenda Item 5).
All other agenda items will be considered in plenary.
