  <dc:description xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Provisional data from England and Wales on the status of salmon stocks and 
fisheries for the 2024 season, submitted to the International Council for 
Exploration of the Sea (ICES) for the purpose of contributing to ICES&#x2019; 
international stock assessments and development of annual advice to the North 
Atlantic Salmon Conservation Organisation (NASCO). Updated data for the 2023 
season are also provided as well as past records for the time series data and 
model run data going back as far as 1971.

Some of these data are also provided to NASCO around the same time, for annual 
reporting purposes.

These national-level provisional data are provided by the Environment Agency 
and Natural Resources Wales.

More detailed information will be reported when the 2024 data have been 
finalised, as part of the series of annual publications, e.g. `Salmon Stocks 
and Fisheries in England and Wales 2023`_ and `Assessment of Salmon Stocks 
and Fisheries in England and Wales`_.
