Ordinances No. 291 and 292 were published in June 2024, forming a Working Group to review management measures for demersal fisheries in the Southeast and South regions, focusing on corvina. The group held the first working group meeting in July 2024 and discussed a proposed management plan, current legislation, fishing vessel permits, and strategies for compiling corvina stock data.
