A technical problem has arisen in Ugga, which makes it impossible for many bidders to select their ships. We hope that the registration in the register of vessels will be fixed quickly, but in the interests of equality it has been decided to move the final deadline for submitting bids to 14:00 a.m. tomorrow June 1st.

There have also been a few inquiries about using hook and line boats to bid for mackerel. It is still permitted to use hook and line boats to bid for mackerel, but on occasion it is appropriate to draw attention to the fact that it is not permitted to transfer catch quotas for mackerel bought on the exchange market according to paragraph 6, article 4, in regulation on commercial fishing in the 2022/2023 fishing year.
