WRITTEN QUESTION No. 2491/98 by Allan MACARTNEY to the Commission. Exploitation of fishing quotas
Official Journal C 096 , 08/04/1999 P. 0105
WRITTEN QUESTION E-2491/98 by Allan Macartney (ARE) to the Commission (30 July 1998) Subject: Exploitation of fishing quotas Can the Commission give a precise indication as to the level of quota, excluding quota swaps, which is exploited by nationals of a Member State other than the one which was originally allocated the quota? If so, can the Commission clarify which countries this involves and to what extent this practice is carried out? Specifically, can the Commission provide up-to-date statistics on the exploitation of quotas by Dutch nationals, which had previously been allocated to countries other than the Netherlands? Answer given by Mrs Bonino on behalf of the Commission (10 September 1998) The Commission regrets to inform the Honourable Member that it is unable to provide him with the information required since this is not available. For the purpose of management of the total allowable catches (TAC) and quota system, only data relating to each stock's cumulative catch from vessels flying the flag of each Member State are required. Only those data are consequently reported to the Commission.
