(8) It is appropriate to establish a multi- species fisheries plan taking into account the dynamics between the stocks of cod, herring and sprat, and also considering the by- catch species of the fisheries for these stocks, namely the Baltic stocks of plaice, brill, flounder and turbot, and incidental catches of seabirds and marine mammals. The objective of this plan should be to aim at achievinge and maintaining maximum sustainable yields for the stocks concerned.

(8) It is appropriateThe ultimate goal is to establish a multi- species fisheries plan taking into account the dynamics between the stocks of cod, herring and sprat, and also considering the by-catch species of the fisheries for these stocks, namely the Baltic stocks of plaice, brill, flounder and turbot. The objective of this plan should be to aim at achievinge and maintaining maximum sustainable yields for the stocks concerned, as well as to minimise the impact of the fisheries on the wider marine environment.

(12) These targets should therefore be established and expressed in terms of fishing mortality rates, based on scientific advice19 that restores and maintains populations of harvested species above levels which can produce the maximum sustainable yield. The maximum sustainable yield exploitation rate should be the upper limit for exploitation. __________________ 19 ICES technical services, September 2014 http://www.ices.dk/sites/pub/Publication% 20Reports/Advice/2014/Special%20Reque sts/EU_Fmsy_range_for_Baltic_cod_and_ pelagic_stocks.pdf

(25) As regards the time-frame, it is expected that for the stocks concerned maximum sustainable yield should be reachedthe stocks concerned should achieve the target by 2015 where possible and, on a progressive, incremental basis at the latest by 201520. It should be maintained from therese dates on.

2. When the spawning biomass of any of the stocks concerned for a certain year is below the minimum spawning biomass levels set out in paragraph 1, appropriate remedial measures shall be adopted to ensure rapid return ofthat the stocks concerned return to precautionary levels as soon as possible. In particular, by way of derogation from Article 4(2) of this Regulation and in accordance with Article 16(4) of Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013 fishing opportunities shall be set at levels lower than those resulting in target fishing mortality ranges laid down in Article 4(1).

Article 14
Article 14
The Commission shall ensure an evaluation of the impact of this plan on the stocks covered by this Regulation and on the fisheries exploiting those stocks, in particular to take account of changes in scientific advice, six years after the entry into force of the plan and, thereafter, every six years. Within the framework of the evaluation of the plan, the Commission shall report to the European Parliament and the Council on progress achieved towards restoring and maintaining fish stocks above levels capable of producing maximum sustainable yield. The Commission shall submit the results of these evaluations to the European Parliament and Council.
