Herring in Subareas I, II, and V, and in Divisions IVa and XIVa (Norwegian spring-spawning herring)

ICES  advises  on  the  basis  of  the  management  plan  of  EU, Faroe Islands, Iceland, Norway, and Russia that catches  in 2015  should be no more than 283 013  t.  Minor discards are known to take place, but cannot be quantified accurately; the proportion of discards in the total catches are considered negligible.
