		Scientists from ICES have advised the European Commission and national governments that all fisheries that target cod in the North Sea, Skagerrak, Irish Sea and waters west of Scotland should be closed (Go to chart of ICES areas).
		Cod stocks in the North Sea, Skagerrak, Irish Sea and waters west of Scotland have been in decline for a number of years, and are now at, or near, their lowest recorded levels.
		The European Commission has recently proposed a rebuilding plan for the North Sea cod stock whereby fishing pressure would be reduced to increase the spawning stock biomass (fish able to reproduce) by 30% per year.

		COPENHAGEN, Denmark — An international marine research group warned Monday that the outlook for cod stocks in the North Sea was poor and called for a reduction in fishing off Norway, in inner Danish waters and around the Faeroe Islands.
		The Copenhagen-based International Council for the Exploration of the Sea said it would call for at least a 50 percent reduction in cod fishing off the Faeroe Islands, located between Scotland and Iceland.
		In recent years, scientists say North Sea cod stocks have shrunk to about 10 percent of 1970 levels, and warned of depletion on the scale that seen in eastern Canadian waters, where cod largely disappeared in the 1990s.

		The International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) claimed that unrecorded catches by fishermen were undermining the European quota system.
		The marine scientists said their most plausible forecast for Irish Sea cod catches assumed a catch in 2005 that was 25% greater than the total allowable tonnage.
		In the case of cod, the Irish Sea fleet faces a 15% reduction while the prawn quota has been reduced by more than 10%, not because the stock is under pressure, but simply that cod is often a by-catch as trawlers scour the muddy bottom of the Irish Sea.

		“The continuous disregard of by the EU Fisheries Council and the European Commission of scientific advice is causing the collapse of stock after stock in European waters,” said Charlotte Mogensen, Fisheries Policy Officer at WWF's European Policy Office.
		In October, the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) advised zero-catch for deep water sharks in 2006, but the European Commission has not proposed any measure to start the recovery of these stocks.

		It also warns that while haddock stocks are still plentiful in the North Sea, with a stock estimate of 266,000 tons in 2005, it is likely that catch levels will decline in the future.
		The marine experts from the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) say cod stocks in the North Sea remain well below minimum recommended levels and are advising zero catches of the fish in 2006.
