The Marine Management Organisation (MMO) has not taken any enforcement action using evidence from the Catch Recording app as outlined in the MMO’s response to the public consultation in June 2019. The MMO’s priority has been to continue to support the under 10 metre fleet to adjust to the new licence condition to record their catches of quota species via workshops, drop-in sessions and digital support. The MMO will provide notice to the fishing sector before moving in to an enforcement phase.
