Abstract
The ISC provided the following conservation advice to the Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission and the Scientific Committee believes it appropriate for managers to consider:
Given the conclusions of the May-June 2008 stock assessment with regard to the current level of F relative to potential target and limit reference points, and residual uncertainties associated with key model parameters, it is important that the current level of F is not increased.

a) If F remains at the current level and environmental conditions remain favourable, then recruitment should be sufficient to maintain current yield well into the future.

b) A reduction in F, in combination with favourable environmental conditions, should lead to greater Y/R and SPR and, after some lag, greater sustained yield.

c) Increases in F above the current level, and/or unfavourable changes in environmental conditions, may result in recruitment levels which are insufficient to sustain the current productivity of the stock.
