    Abstract

    WG-FSA estimated in 2022 a krill Precautionary Catch Limit for Subarea 48.1, which remains to be implemented. At the time, concerns were raised about the lack of a workplan for obtaining regular updates of the Precautionary Catch Limit (PCL). Here we propose an overall workplan for regularly updating the PCL for Subarea 48.1 and the elements required for such endeavor.
