The results for OMP variants requested at the previous SWG meeting are reported. Adjusting the amount transferred from A8 to A56 results in satisfactory performance for a maximum TAC increase constraint in the 10-12% range. Tolerance allowances of 10% for the offshore fishing gives acceptable results, but not for the nearshore and IR sectors because the projected frequency of transfers into A8 in that case leads to A8 being heavily depleted.
