COUNCIL REGULATION (EU) No 40/2013
of 21 January 2013
fixing for 2013 the fishing opportunities available in EU waters and, to EU vessels, in certain non-EU waters for certain fish stocks and groups of fish stocks which are subject to international negotiations or agreements
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 43(3) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1) |
Council Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 of 20 December 2002 on the conservation and sustainable exploitation of fisheries resources under the Common Fisheries Policy (1) requires that Union measures governing access to waters and resources and the sustainable pursuit of fishing activities be established taking into account available scientific, technical and economic advice and in particular reports drawn up by the Scientific, Technical and Economic Committee for Fisheries (STECF), as well as in the light of any advice received from Regional Advisory Councils. |
(2) |
It is incumbent upon the Council to adopt measures on the fixing and allocation of fishing opportunities, including certain conditions functionally linked thereto, as appropriate. Fishing opportunities should be distributed among Member States in such a way as to assure each Member State relative stability of fishing activities for each stock or fishery and having due regard to the objectives of the Common Fisheries Policy established in Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002. |
(3) |
For certain total allowable catch (TACs) Member States should be allowed to grant additional allocations for vessels participating in trials on fully documented fisheries. The aim of those trials is to test a catch-quota system, i.e. a system where all catches should be landed and counted against quotas in order to avoid discards and the waste of otherwise usable fish resources they entail. Uncontrolled discards of fish are a threat to the long term sustainability of fish as a public good and thus to the Common Fisheries Policy objectives. By contrast, catch-quota systems inherently present the fishers with an incentive to optimise the catch selectivity of their operations. In order to achieve a rational management of discards, a fully documented fishery should cover every operation at sea, rather than what is landed at port. The conditions for Member States to grant such additional allocations should therefore include an obligation to ensure the use of close circuit television cameras (CCTV) associated to a system of sensors (jointly referred to as "CCTV system"). This should enable the recording, in detail, of all retained and discarded parts of catches. A system based on human observers operating in real time on board would be less efficient, more costly, and less reliable. Consequently, the use of CCTV systems is, at this time, a prerequisite for the achievement of discard reduction schemes such as fully documented fisheries. In the use of such system, the requirements of Directive 95/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 October 1995 on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data (2) should be complied with. |
(4) |
In order to ensure that trials of fully documented fisheries can effectively evaluate the potential of catch-quota systems to control the absolute fishing mortality of the stocks concerned, it is necessary for all fish caught in those trials, including those under minimum landing size, to be counted against the total allocation assigned to the participating vessel, and for fishing operations to cease when that total allocation has been fully utilised by that vessel. It is also appropriate to allow transfers of allocations between vessels participating in the fully documented fisheries trials and non-participating vessels provided that it can be demonstrated that discards by non-participating vessels do not increase. |
(5) |
The TACs should be established on the basis of available scientific advice, taking into account biological and socio-economic aspects whilst ensuring fair treatment between fishing sectors, as well as in the light of the opinions expressed during the consultation of stakeholders, in particular at the meetings of the Regional Advisory Councils concerned. |
(6) |
For stocks subject to specific multiannual plans, the TACs should be established in accordance with the rules laid down in those plans. Consequently, the TACs for stocks of sole in the North Sea, of plaice in the North Sea, of cod in the North Sea, Skagerrak and the eastern Channel, of bluefin tuna in the eastern Atlantic and the Mediterranean and of herring in the West of Scotland should be established in accordance with the rules laid down in Council Regulation (EC) No 676/2007 of 11 June 2007 establishing a multiannual plan for fisheries exploiting stocks of plaice and sole in the North Sea (3); Council Regulation (EC) No 1300/2008 of 18 December 2008 establishing a multi-annual plan for the stock of herring distributed to the west of Scotland and the fisheries exploiting that stock (4); Council Regulation (EC) No 1342/2008 of 18 December 2008 establishing a long-term plan for cod stocks and the fisheries exploiting those stocks (5) (the ‧Cod Plan‧); and Council Regulation (EC) No 302/2009 of 6 April 2009 concerning a multiannual recovery plan for bluefin tuna in the eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean (6). |
(7) |
For stocks for which there is no sufficient or reliable data in order to provide size estimates, management measures and TAC levels should follow the precautionary approach to fisheries management as defined in point (i) of Article 3 of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002, while taking into account stock-specific factors, including, in particular, available information on stock trends and mixed fisheries considerations. |
(8) |
In accordance with Article 2 of Council Regulation (EC) No 847/96 of 6 May 1996 introducing additional conditions for year-to-year management of TACs and quotas (7), the stocks that are subject to the various measures referred to therein should be identified. |
(9) |
For certain species, such as certain species of sharks, even a limited fishing activity could result in a serious risk to their conservation. Fishing opportunities for such species should therefore be fully restricted through a general prohibition on fishing those species. |
(10) |
It is appropriate, following advice from the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), to maintain and revise a system to manage sandeel in EU waters of ICES divisions IIa and IIIa and ICES subarea IV. |
(11) |
It is necessary to establish the fishing effort ceilings for 2013 in accordance with Article 9 of Regulation (EC) No 676/2007, Articles 11 and 12 of Regulation (EC) No 1342/2008 and Articles 5 and 9 of Regulation (EC) No 302/2009, while taking into account Regulation (EC) No 754/2009 of 27 July 2009 excluding certain groups of vessels from the fishing effort regime laid down in Chapter III of Regulation (EC) No 1342/2008 (8). |
(12) |
In accordance with the procedure provided for in the agreements or protocols on fisheries relations with Norway (9), the Faroe Islands (10) and Iceland (11), the Union has held consultations on fishing rights with those partners. The consultations with Norway have not been finalised and the arrangements for 2013 are only expected to be concluded in early 2013. In order to avoid the interruption of Union fishing activities, whilst allowing for the necessary flexibility for the conclusion of those arrangements early in 2013, it is appropriate to establish the fishing opportunities for stocks subject to those arrangements on a provisional basis. It has not been possible to conclude consultations with either the Faroe Islands or Iceland on fisheries arrangements for 2013. In accordance with the procedure provided for in the agreement and protocol on fisheries relations with Greenland (12), the Joint Committee has established the concrete level of fishing opportunities available for the Union in Greenland waters in 2013. According to the decision of the Joint Committee, quotas for capelin available to the Union in Greenland waters of ICES subareas V and XIV are to be automatically increased if a catch level of 70 % of the initial quota is achieved. |
(13) |
The Union is a contracting party to several fisheries organisations and participates in other organisations as a cooperating non-party. Moreover, by virtue of the 2003 Act of Accession, fisheries agreements previously concluded by the Republic of Poland, such as the Convention on the Conservation and Management of Pollock resources in the central Bering Sea, are managed by the Union as from the date of accession of Poland. Those fisheries organisations have recommended the introduction for 2013 of a number of measures, including fishing opportunities for EU vessels. Those fishing opportunities should be implemented in the law of the Union. |
(14) |
Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMO) may allow for quota transfers and exchanges between Contracting Parties. To facilitate such quota transfers and exchanges between the Union and other Contracting Parties, Member States should be authorised to discuss with other Contracting Parties to the RFMO and, as appropriate, establish possible outlines of an intended quota transfer or exchange. The Commission should exchange the consent to be bound by such quota transfer or exchange with the other Contracting Party and notify the quota transfer or exchange to the RFMO. The fishing opportunities received or transferred under such quota transfer or exchange should be considered as fishing opportunities allocated to, or deducted from the allocation of the Member State concerned including for the purposes of applying the relevant provisions of Council Regulation (EC) 1224/2009 of 20 November 2009 establishing a Community control system for ensuring compliance with the rules of the common fisheries policy (13). However, such ad hoc quota transfer or exchange should not change the existing distribution key for the purpose of allocating fishing opportunities among Member States in accordance with the principle of relative stability of fishing activities. |
(15) |
At its 34th Annual Meeting in 2012, the Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (NAFO) adopted a number of fishing opportunities for 2013 of certain stocks in Subareas 1-4 of the NAFO Convention Area. In that context, NAFO adopted a procedure for increase of the TAC for white hake in NAFO Subdivision 3NO fixed for 2013, if certain conditions related to the situation of this stock are met. A Contracting Party to NAFO may notify to the Executive Secretary of NAFO that higher than normal catches per unit of effort have been observed for the stock of white hake in NAFO Subdivision 3NO. If the in-year 2013 TAC increase is confirmed by NAFO, it should be implemented into the law of the Union. |
(16) |
At its 83nd Annual Meeting in 2012, the Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC) adopted conservation measures for yellowfin tuna, bigeye tuna and skipjack tuna. IATTC also adopted a resolution on the conservation of oceanic whitetip sharks. Those measures should be implemented in the law of the Union. |
(17) |
At its Annual Meeting in 2012, the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT) adopted a revised multi-annual recovery plan for bluefin tuna in the Eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean according to which the Union quota was increased. Furthermore, the closed fishing season for some fishing gears has been replaced by an open season and moved back by ten days. In addition, a one year extension of the existing TAC and quotas for Southern-Atlantic swordfish was adopted, as well as a new plan for rebuilding populations of blue and white marlins. As a result, the Union quota for Southern-Atlantic swordfish remains the same as in 2012, whereas the Union quota for blue marlin was consistently increased to take into account the artisanal fishery in the outermost regions of the Union. The Union quota for white marlins remained stable. Those measures should be implemented in the law of the Union. |
(18) |
At its Annual Meeting in 2012, the Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC) did not modify its measures regarding fishing opportunities as currently implemented in the law of the Union. The currently applicable measures adopted by the IOTC should be implemented in the law of the Union. |
(19) |
The first Annual Meeting of the South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO) will be held from 28 January to 1 February 2013. Until such Annual Meeting is held, it is appropriate that the current interim measures remain in place, as implemented by Regulation (EU) No 44/2012. |
(20) |
At its Annual Meeting in 2012, the South East Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (SEAFO) did not modify the TACs for Patagonian toothfish, orange roughy, alfonsinos and deep-sea red crab agreed for 2011 and 2012 at its annual meeting in 2010. The currently applicable measures adopted by SEAFO should be implemented in the law of the Union. |
(21) |
In the light of the most recent scientific advice from ICES and in accordance with the international commitments in the context of the North East Atlantic Fisheries Convention (NEAFC), it is necessary to limit the fishing effort on certain deep-sea species. |
(22) |
The 9th Annual Meeting of the Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC) in 2012 did not modify its measures regarding fishing opportunities as currently implemented in the law of the Union, with the exception of a strengthening of the closed area for fish aggregation devices (FAD) fishing. The revision of this closed area for FAD fishing requires that the Union as a Contracting Party to WCPFC decides on one of two available options for additional measures for strengthening the closed area. Until such a decision is taken, the currently applicable measures adopted by the WCFPC should continue to be implemented in the law of the Union. |
(23) |
At its Annual Meeting in 2012, the Parties to the Convention on the Conservation and Management of Pollock resources in the central Bering Sea did not modify its measures regarding fishing opportunities. Those measures should be implemented in the law of the Union. |
(24) |
At its Annual Meeting in 2012, the Parties to the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) adopted catch limits for both target and by-catch species. Those measures should be implemented in the law of the Union. |
(25) |
Certain international measures which create or restrict fishing opportunities for the Union are adopted by the relevant RFMOs at the end of the year and become applicable before the entry into force of this Regulation. It is therefore necessary for the provisions that implement such measures in the law of the Union to apply retroactively. In particular, since the fishing season in CCAMLR (Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources) Convention Area runs from 1 December to 30 November, and thus certain fishing opportunities or prohibitions in the CCAMLR Convention Area are laid down for a period of time starting from 1 December 2012, it is appropriate that the relevant provisions of this Regulation apply from that date. Such retroactive application will be without prejudice to the principle of legitimate expectations as CCAMLR members are forbidden to fish in the CCAMLR Convention Area without authorisation. |
(26) |
In accordance with the declaration by the Union to the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela ("Venezuela") on the granting of fishing opportunities in EU waters to fishing vessels flying the flag of Venezuela in the exclusive economic zone (EZZ) off the coast of French Guyana (14), it is necessary to fix the fishing opportunities for snappers available to Venezuela in EU waters. |
(27) |
The use of fishing opportunities available to EU vessels set out in this Regulation is subject to Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 and in particular to Articles 33 and 34 of that Regulation, concerning the recording of catches and fishing effort and the notification of data on the exhaustion of fishing opportunities. It is therefore necessary to specify the codes to be used by Member States when sending data to the Commission relating to landings of stocks subject to this Regulation. |
(28) |
In order to avoid the interruption of fishing activities and to ensure the livelihood of the fishermen of the Union, this Regulation should apply from 1 January 2013, except for the provisions concerning fishing effort limits, which should apply from 1 February 2013, and specific provisions in particular regions, which should have a specific date of application as indicated in recital 23. For reasons of urgency, this Regulation should enter into force immediately after its publication. |
(29) |
Fishing opportunities should be used in full compliance with the applicable law of the Union, |

CHAPTER I
General provisions
Article 5
TACs and allocations
1. The TACs for EU vessels in EU waters or in certain non-EU waters and the allocation of such TACs among Member States, and the conditions functionally linked thereto, where appropriate, are set out in Annex I.
2. EU vessels are authorised to make catches, within the TACs set out in Annex I, in waters falling within the fisheries jurisdiction of the Faroe Islands, Greenland, Iceland and Norway, and the fishing zone around Jan Mayen, subject to the condition set out in Article 14 of and Annex III to this Regulation and in Regulation (EC) No 1006/2008 (26) and its implementing provisions.
Article 6
Additional allocations for vessels participating in trials on fully documented fisheries
1. For certain stocks, a Member State may grant an additional allocation to vessels flying its flag and participating in trials on fully documented fisheries. Those stocks are identified in Annex I.
2. The additional allocation referred to in paragraph 1 shall not exceed the overall limit set out in Annex I as a percentage of the quota allocated to that Member State.
3. The additional allocation referred to in paragraph 1 shall comply with the following conditions:
(a) |
the vessel makes use of close circuit television cameras (CCTV) associated to a system of sensors (jointly referred to as "the CCTV system") to record all on board fishing and processing activities; |
(b) |
the additional allocation granted to an individual vessel that participates in trials on fully documented fisheries shall not exceed any of the following limits:
|
(c) |
all catches by the vessel from the stock subject to the additional allocation, including fish that are under minimum landing size as defined in Annex XII of Regulation (EC) No 850/98, shall be counted against the individual allocation of the vessel, as resulting from any additional allocation granted under this Article; |
(d) |
once the individual allocation for any stock subject to the additional allocation has been fully utilised by a vessel, the vessel in question must cease all fishing activity in the relevant TAC area; |
(e) |
in respect of the stocks for which this Article may be used, the Member States may allow transfers of the individual allocation or any part thereof from vessels not participating in the fully documented fisheries trials to vessels participating in those trials provided that it can be demonstrated that discards by the non-participating vessels do not increase. |
4. Notwithstanding point (i) of point (b) of paragraph 3, a Member State may exceptionally grant to a vessel flying its flag an additional allocation exceeding 75 % of the estimated discards of the stock produced by the type of vessel to which the individual vessel that has been granted the additional allocation belongs, provided that:
(a) |
the rate of stock discards, as estimated for the relevant type of vessel, is less than 10 %; |
(b) |
the inclusion of that type of vessel is important to evaluate the potential of the CCTV system for control purposes; |
(c) |
an overall limit of 75 % of the estimated stock discards produced by all vessels participating in the trials is not exceeded. |
5. To the extent that the recordings obtained in accordance with point (a) of paragraph 3 involve the processing of personal data within the meaning of Directive 95/46/EC, that Directive shall apply to the processing of such data.
6. Where a Member State detects that a vessel participating in trials on fully documented fisheries fails to comply with the conditions set out in paragraph 3, it shall immediately withdraw the additional allocation granted to that vessel and exclude it from participation in those trials for the remainder of the year 2013.
7. Prior to granting the additional allocation referred to in paragraphs 1 to 6, a Member State shall submit to the Commission the following information:
(a) |
the list of vessels flying its flag and participating in trials on fully documented fisheries; |
(b) |
the specifications of the remote electronic monitoring equipment installed on board those vessels; |
(c) |
the capacity, type and specification of gears used by those vessels; |
(d) |
the estimated discards for each type of vessel participating in the trials; |
(e) |
the amount of catches of the stock subject to the relevant TAC made in 2012 by the vessels participating in the trials. |
8. The Commission may request any Member State that avails itself of this Article to submit its assessment of the discards produced per type of vessel to a scientific advisory body for review, in order to monitor the implementation of the requirement set out in point (i) of point (b) of paragraph 3. In the absence of an assessment confirming such discards, the Member State concerned shall take any appropriate measure to ensure compliance with that requirement and inform the Commission thereof.
Article 7
Conditions for landing catches and by-catches
Fish from stocks for which TACs are established shall be retained on board or landed only if:
(a) |
the catches have been taken by vessels flying the flag of a Member State having a quota and that quota is not exhausted; or |
(b) |
the catches consist of a share in a EU quota which has not been allocated by quota among Member States, and that EU quota has not been exhausted. |
Article 8

Article 9
Catch and effort limits for deep-sea fisheries
1. Article 3(1) of Regulation (EC) No 2347/2002 (27) establishing the requirement of holding a deep-sea fishing permit shall apply to Greenland halibut. The catching, retaining on board, transhipping and landing of Greenland halibut shall be subject to the conditions referred to in that Article.
2. Member States shall ensure that for 2013 the fishing effort levels, measured in kilowatt days absent from port, by vessels holding deep-sea fishing permits referred to in Article 3(1) of Regulation (EC) No 2347/2002 do not exceed 65 % of the average annual fishing effort deployed by the vessels of the Member State concerned in 2003 on trips when deep-sea fishing permits were held or deep-sea species, as listed in Annexes I and II to that Regulation, were caught. This paragraph shall apply only to fishing trips on which more than 100 kg of deep-sea species, other than greater silver smelt, were caught.
Article 10
Special provisions on allocations of fishing opportunities
1. The allocation of fishing opportunities among Member States as set out in this Regulation shall be without prejudice to:
(a) |

ANNEX IIA
Fishing effort for vessels in the context of the management of certain cod, plaice and sole stocks in the Skagerrak, that part of ICES division IIIa not covered by the Skagerrak and the Kattegat, ICES subarea IV, EU waters of ICES division IIa and ICES division VIId
1. Scope
1.1. |
This Annex shall apply to EU vessels carrying on board or deploying any of the gears specified in point 1 of Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1342/2008 and present in any of the geographical areas specified in point 2 of that Annex. |
1.2. |
This Annex shall not apply to vessels of less than 10 metres’ length overall. Those vessels shall not be required to carry fishing authorisations issued in accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009. Member States concerned shall assess the fishing effort of those vessels by effort groups to which they belong, using appropriate sampling methods. During 2013, the Commission shall seek scientific advice for evaluating the effort deployment of those vessels, with a view to their future inclusion into the effort regime. |
2. Regulated gears and geographical areas
For the purposes of this Annex, the gear groupings specified in point 1 of Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1342/2008 ("regulated gear") and the groupings of geographical areas referred to in point 2(b) of that Annex shall apply.
3. Authorisations
If a Member State deems so appropriate in order to reinforce the sustainable implementation of this effort regime, it may introduce a prohibition to fish with a regulated gear in any of the geographical areas to which this Annex applies by any of vessels flying its flag which has no record of such fishing activity, unless it ensures that equivalent capacity, measured in kilowatts, is prevented from fishing in that area.
4. Maximum allowable fishing effort
4.1. |
The maximum allowable effort referred to in Article 12(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1342/2008 and in Article 9(2) of Regulation (EC) No 676/2007 for the 2013 management period, from 1 February 2013 to 31 January 2014, for each of the effort groups of each Member State is set out in Appendix 1 to this Annex. |
4.2. |
The maximum levels of annual fishing effort set in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1954/2003 (1) shall not affect the maximum allowable fishing effort set in this Annex. |
5. Management
5.1. |
Member States shall manage the maximum allowable effort in accordance with the conditions laid down in Article 9 of Regulation (EC) No 676/2007, Article 4 and Articles 13 to 17 of Regulation (EC) No 1342/2008 and Articles 26 to 35 of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009. |
5.2. |
A Member State may establish management periods for allocating all or parts of the maximum allowable effort to individual vessels or groups of vessels. In such case, the number of days or hours for which a vessel may be present within the area during a management period shall be fixed at the discretion of the Member State concerned. During any such management periods, the Member State may reallocate effort between individual vessels or groups of vessels. |
5.3. |
If a Member State authorises vessels to be present within an area by hours, it shall continue measuring the consumption of days in accordance with the conditions referred to in point 5.1. Upon request by the Commission, the Member State shall demonstrate its precautionary measures taken to avoid an excessive consumption of effort within the area due to a vessel terminating presences in the area before the end of a 24-hour period. |
6. Fishing effort report
Article 28 of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 shall apply to vessels falling under the scope of this Annex. The geographical area referred to in that Article shall be understood, for the purpose of cod management, as each of the geographical areas referred to in point 2 of this Annex.
7. Communication of relevant data
Member States shall transmit to the Commission the data on fishing effort deployed by their fishing vessels in accordance with Articles 33 and 34 of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009. Those data shall be transmitted via the Fisheries Data Exchange System or any future data collection system implemented by the Commission.

skates and rays: 5 % of the catch limit for Dissostichus spp. or 50 tonnes, whichever is greater; |
— |
Macrourus spp.: 16 % of the catch limit for Dissostichus spp. or 20 tonnes, whichever is greater, except in Statistical Division 58.4.3a and Statistical Subarea 88.1; |
— |
other species: 20 tonnes per SSRU. |
(4) Catch limit to permit Spain to undertake a depletion experiment in 2012/2013.
(5) As of the 2013/14 fishing season, using the table provided in the C1 form as a guideline, the notification shall include a description of the exact detailed method of estimation of the green weight of krill caught, including information and, where possible, data to estimate the uncertainty associated with green weight reported by vessels or to understand the underlying variability in the constants used for making these estimations, and, if conversion factors are applied, the exact detailed method of how each conversion factor was derived. Members are not required to re-submit such a description in the following seasons, unless changes in the method of green weight estimation occur.
(6) Information to be provided to the extent possible.
(7) Conversion factor = whole weight/processed weight.
(8) If yes, frequency of switch between fishing techniques:

(1) To issue those fishing authorisations, proof must be produced that a valid contract exists between the ship owner applying for the fishing authorisation and a processing undertaking situated in the Department of French Guiana, and that it includes an obligation to land at least 75 % of all snapper catches from the vessel concerned in that department so that they may be processed in that undertaking's plant. Such a contract must be endorsed by the French authorities, which shall ensure that it is consistent both with the actual capacity of the contracting processing undertaking and with the objectives for the development of the Guianese economy. A copy of the duly endorsed contract shall be appended to the fishing authorisation application. Where such an endorsement is refused, the French authorities shall give notification of this refusal and state their reasons for it to the party concerned and to the Commission.
