    COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2022/1926

    of 11 October 2022

    operating deductions from fishing quotas available for certain stocks in 2022 on account of overfishing in the previous years

    THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

    Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

    Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 of 20 November 2009 establishing a Union control system for ensuring compliance with the rules of the common fisheries policy, amending Regulations (EC) No 847/96, (EC) No 2371/2002, (EC) No 811/2004, (EC) No 768/2005, (EC) No 2115/2005, (EC) No 2166/2005, (EC) No 388/2006, (EC) No 509/2007, (EC) No 676/2007, (EC) No 1098/2007, (EC) No 1300/2008, (EC) No 1342/2008 and repealing Regulations (EEC) No 2847/93, (EC) No 1627/94 and (EC) No 1966/2006 (1), and in particular Article 105(1), (2) and (3) thereof,

    Whereas:

    (1)

    Fishing quotas for the year 2021 have been established by Council Regulations (EU) 2020/1579 (2), (EU) 2021/90 (3), (EU) 2021/91 (4) and (EU) 2021/92 (5).

    (2)

    Fishing quotas for the year 2022 have been established by Council Regulations (EU) 2021/91, (EU) 2021/1888 (6), (EU) 2022/109 (7) and (EU) 2022/110 (8).

    (3)

    Pursuant to Article 105(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009, when the Commission has established that a Member State has exceeded the fishing quotas which have been allocated to it, the Commission is to operate deductions from future fishing quotas of that Member State.

    (4)

    Article 105(2) and (3) of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 provides that such deductions are to be operated in the following year or years by applying the respective multiplying factors as set out therein.

    (5)

    Certain Member States have exceeded their fishing quotas for the year 2021. Deductions should therefore be operated on the fishing quotas allocated to them in 2022 and, where relevant, in subsequent years, for the overfished stocks.

    (6)

    Further updates or corrections may still occur following the detection, for the current or previous deduction exercise, of errors, omissions or misreporting in the catch figures declared by the Member States pursuant to Article 33 of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009.

    (7)

    Since quotas are expressed in tonnes, overfishing involving quantities of less than 1 tonne should not be considered,

    HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

    Article 1

    The fishing quotas fixed for the year 2022 in Regulations (EU) 2021/91, (EU) 2021/1888, (EU) 2022/109 and (EU) 2022/110 shall be reduced as set out in the Annex to this Regulation.

    Article 2

    This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

    This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

    Done at Brussels, 11 October 2022.

    Ursula VON DER LEYEN
