    THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

    Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 37 thereof,

    Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

    Having regard to the Opinion of the European Parliament (1),

    Whereas:

    (1)

    Council Regulation (EC) No 1035/2001 of 22 May 2001 establishing a catch documentation scheme for Dissostichus spp. (2) implements the catch documentation scheme adopted by the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (hereinafter referred to as ‘CCAMLR’) at its eighteenth Annual Meeting in November 1999.

    (2)

    The CCAMLR adopted a number of amendments to the scheme and to a related resolution aiming at improving the control of landings, imports, exports, re-exports and transhipments of Dissostichus spp. and at harmonising the implementation thereof.

    (3)

    Regulation (EC) No 1035/2001 should therefore be amended accordingly,

    The following points shall be added to Article 3:

    ‘(d)

    “import” means the physical entering or bringing of a catch into any part of the geographical territory under the control of a State, except where the catch is landed or transhipped within the definitions of “landing” or “transhipment” set out in points (e) and (f);

    (e)

    “landing” means the initial transfer of catch in its harvested or processed form from a vessel to dockside or to another vessel in a port or free trade zone where the catch is certified by an authority of the Port State as landed;

    “transhipment” means:

    —

    the transfer of a catch in its harvested or processed form from a vessel to another vessel or means of transport, and, where such transfer takes place within the territory under the control of a Port State, for the purpose of effecting its removal from that State,

    temporarily placing a catch on land or an artificial structure to faciliate such transfer where the catch is not landed within the definition of point (e);

    (g)

    “export” means any movement of a catch in its harvested or processed form from territory under the control of a State or free trade zone of landing, or, where that State or free trade zone forms part of a customs union, any other Member State of this customs union;

    (h)

    “re-export” means any movement of a catch in its harvested or processed form from territory under the control of the State, free trade zone, or Member State of a customs union of import unless that State, free trade zone, or any Member State of that customs union of import is the first place of import, in which case the movement is an export within the definition in point (g);
