    Analysis of fish by-catch in the krill fishery is updated based on recommendations from WG-FSA-2022. In addition to updating the analyses of frequency of occurrence and by-catch rates, by-catch weight is estimated using the observer data. Extensive data quality checks have been performed and enabled the correction of several records.
