Abstract
A fishery characterisation and stock assessment have been undertaken and accepted for SCI 3. A three stock model was developed, based on previous studies. Models excluding trawl or photo surveys were examined. Both approaches suggest SSB is currently around 54–60% SSB0. Models excluding trawl surveys suggest stock status would improve to 70% SSB0 by 2020 with future catches at the TACC, while models excluding the photo survey stock status would decline to 42% SSB0
