Stock Assessment of Northern Cod (Divs. 2J3KL)

Regional Peer Review Process - Newfoundland and Labrador Region

April 1-2, 2020
Virtual meeting

Chairperson: Darrell Mullowney

Context

The last stock assessment for Northern cod was completed in March 2019 (Fisheries and Oceans Canada [DFO] 2018). In January 2019, a Regional Peer Review Process was held to evaluate the Limit Reference Point (LRP) for Northern cod (DFO 2019). The peer review meeting reached a consensus that the method for determining the LRP and the reference point itself remained valid.

Detailed advice on the status of the stock was requested by Fisheries Management Branch to inform recommendations to the Minister for management decisions for the 2020 fishing season.
