Megrim (Lepidorhombus whiffiagonis) in divisions 7.b–k, 8.a–b, and 8.d (west and southwest of Ireland, Bay of Biscay)

ICES advises that when the MSY approach is applied, catches in 2017 should be no more than 16 021 tonnes. If discard rates do not change from the average of the last three years (2013–2015), this implies landings of no more than 13 709 tonnes.
