(17)Council Regulation (EU) 2025/2454note fixes for 2026 fishing opportunities for certain fish stocks and groups of fish stocks applicable in the Baltic Sea. Due to serious uncertainties about the condition and the future development of the stock, that Regulation sets a TAC for herring (Clupea harengus) in ICES divisions 30 and 31 (Gulf of Bothnia) for 2026 covering the period from 1 January to 31 October 2026. In accordance with Article 3(4) and Article 5(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/1139 of the European Parliament and of the Councilnote, it is appropriate to set the TAC for Bothnian herring for 2026 on the basis of the ICES advice of 28 May 2025 for that stock for 2026 and in line with the reduced lowest value within the range of FMSY, and taking into account the latest scientific information contained in the ICES technical service of 10 June 2026.
