## Notice

This literature review/management evaluation is being commissioned by the Marine Management Organisation's Fisheries Management Plan Team, who work to develop national fisheries management plans as obliged under the Joint Fisheries Statement and the overarching Fisheries Act 2020. The aim of fisheries management plans is to set out policies required to maintain or restore stocks to sustainable levels. Fisheries management plans are evidence based and collaboratively developed with fisheries stakeholders. Robust evidence is required to fully understand the biological and ecological characteristics of species, identify any concerns regarding the sustainability of respective fisheries, and support any subsequent management. The aim of the project is to deliver a literature review and evaluation of current and potential fisheries management practices for the following species groups: Black seabream (Spondyliosoma cantharus) and gilthead bream (Sparus aurata). Wrasse Complex: Ballan wrasse (Labrus bergylta), corkwing wrasse (Symphodus melops), Goldsinny (Ctenolabrus rupestris), rock cook (Centrolabrus exoletus) and Cuckoo wrasse (Labrus mixtus)
