sch.2-sec.102 Square mesh panel—outside of central trawl region
A panel of a net used outside of the central trawl region is a recognised BRD if the panel complies with this section. The panel must be in the top of the cod end of the net. The panel must consist of a surrounding panel around a centre panel. The panel must be installed so that— the trailing edge of the surrounding panel is no more than 35 meshes from the cod end drawstrings of the net; and the trailing edge of the centre panel is no more than 40 meshes from the cod end drawstrings of the net. The surrounding panel must be made of square mesh of— a mesh size of at least 45mm; and at least— 550mm wide; and 700mm long. The centre panel must be made of square mesh of— a mesh size of at least 55mm; and at least— 250mm wide; and 300mm long. During trawling, nothing must cover any of the square mesh. sch 2 s 102 sub 2020 SL No. 236 s 159 (sch.2-sec.102-ssec.1) A panel of a net used outside of the central trawl region is a recognised BRD if the panel complies with this section.
