For stocks for which there is no sufficient or reliable data in order to provide size estimates, management measures and TAC levels should follow the precautionary approach to fisheries management as defined in point (8) of Article 4(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013, while taking into account stock-specific factors, including, in particular, available information on stock trends and mixed fisheries considerations.
Afin de garantir la pleine exploitation des possibilités de pêche, il convient de permettre la mise en œuvre d'un arrangement souple entre certaines des zones soumises à des TAC lorsque les mêmes stocks biologiques sont concernés.
