Abstract
This document presents four options for what would have been the basis for recommending TACs for the rock lobster resources at the four Tristan islands had the oil (and soya) spill event not occurred. Though pertinent to the coming season, the rationale for a number of these options is also linked to longer-term optimal sustainability considerations. The longer-term implications of the differences between these options are illustrated by providing resource projections based on the most recent age-structured model assessment of these resources.
