OMPs are the agreed basis to recommend rock lobster TACs for all four islands of the Tristan da Cunha Group. Johnston and Butterworth (2024) report such calculations for the Tristan island and the Nightingale island. Revised OMPs have recently been selected by the Tristan authorities for Inaccessible and Gough islands: OMP3 ITAR6 for Inaccessible, and OMP VAR6 for Gough. The final recommended TACs for the 2024/25 season using these revised OMPs are:
Gough 116 MT
Inaccessible 116 MT
