Key points

Member States are required to make their methods for distributing fishing opportunities publicly available and easily accessible.
Quota allocation should move away from a sole reliance on historical catch levels toward criteria that include environmental, social, and economic impacts.
Special attention and support should be given to small-scale coastal fisheries and traditional fishing communities.
Member States are encouraged to use age-related criteria in their allocation processes to support young fishers entering the industry.
