Some of the advice changed greatly compared to previous advices as data and modes were revised in a benchmark process for five stocks includ-ing the two stocks of sharks (porbeagle and spurdog) and three stocks of skates (cuckoo ray in the Celtic Seas and Bay of Biscay, undulate ray in the English Channel and thornback ray in the Bay of Biscay). For the latter, in addition to changes in the method, the stock structure was re-vised and the previous stock unit for the whole Bay of Biscay was split into two units, one in ICES divisions 8.a–b and 8.d (eastern shelf of the Bay of Biscay) and one in Division 8.c (Canta-brian Sea). The advices for four out of five stocks with the new assessment methods recommend much larger catches than previously. Spurdog was assessed to have significantly rebuilt after depletion and a catch of no more than 17 353 tonnes in 2023 was advises compared to the previous advice for no target fisheries. For porbeagle, the previous advice for 0 catch was replaced by an advice for no more than 219 and 231 tonnes in 2023 and 2024, respectively. Undulate ray in the English Channel was assessed to have rebuild to high levels following periods of prohibition of catches (2009–2014) and low precautionary TACs. The recommended dead catch (including possible dead discards) was advised at about 20 times the amount of the previous advice (i.e.4836 tonnes in 2023). The advised landings for cuckoo ray are about twice the previous level (i.e. 7826 tonnes in 2023).
