<p>According to the most up to date MMO landings data for 2023, there are 34 vessels
under eight metres in length eligible for the compensation scheme. As there is finite
funding available, the pollack compensation scheme is focused on providing funding
to vessel owners whose income is mainly derived from pollack and who made at least
30% of their reported landings income in 2023 from pollack. The MMO are currently
verifying data and will reach out to eligible vessel owners in the coming days. Fishers
who believe they meet the requirements of this scheme but have not heard from MMO
by Monday 29<sup>th</sup> April 2024 should contact MMO by sending an email to <a
