The Council of Ministers has taken a decision to set monthly catch limits for commercial vessels catching sea bass, the European Union fisheries webpage reports.

The decision will come into force before the end of June and last until 31 December 2015. This decision marks an additional step in the package of measures the Commission has proposed for 2015 to halt the decline of this stock and prepare the way forward for further management measures in 2016.
