  • No directed fisheries for blue ling, and a reduction in catches   should be considered until such time there is sufficient scientific information to prove the fishery is sustainable;
  • Measures should be implemented to minimize the bycatch; 
  • Closed areas to protect spawning aggregations should be maintained and expanded where appropriate
