English Bass Authorisation Review Subgroup – Final Report December 2025

“This report outlines 24 recommendations aimed at enhancing sustainable fishing
opportunity, adaptive management and evidence-based management of European
bass stocks. These recommendations also support broader FMP goals, including
reducing bycatch and discards, improving data collection, and ensuring the long-term
sustainability of the bass fishery.

This document is a transparent reflection of the collaborative efforts of the
subgroup’s diverse membership with the resulting recommendations intended to
guide future policy development and implementation under the bass FMP.
It is a testament to the power of collaboration across a diverse stakeholder group
that has navigated a complex landscape of differing priorities, perspectives, and
operational needs through mutual understanding and trust, demonstrating a shared
commitment to constructive dialogue.”
