COUNCIL REGULATION (EU) No 43/2012
of 17 January 2012
fixing for 2012 the fishing opportunities available to EU vessels for certain fish stocks and groups of fish stocks which are not 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) |
Article 43(3) of the Treaty provides that the Council, on a proposal from the Commission, is to adopt measures on the fixing and allocation of fishing opportunities. |
|
(2) |
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 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. |
|
(3) |
It is incumbent upon the Council to adopt measures on the fixing and allocation of fishing opportunities by fishery or by group of fisheries, 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. |
|
(4) |
In order to ensure uniform conditions for the implementation concerning the granting individual Member State an authorisation to benefit from the system of managing its fishing effort allocations in accordance with a kilowatt days system, implementing powers should be conferred on the Commission. |
|
(5) |
In order to ensure uniform conditions for the implementation of this Regulation, implementing powers should be conferred on the Commission relating to granting of additional days at sea for permanent cessation of fishing activities and for enhanced scientific observer coverage as well as to establishing the formats of spreadsheet for the collection and transmission of information concerning transfer of days at sea between fishing vessels flying the flag of a Member State. Those powers should be exercised in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 182/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 February 2011 laying down the rules and general principles concerning mechanisms for control by Member States of the Commission's exercise of implementing powers (2). |
|
(6) |
Where a total allowable catch (TAC) relating to a stock is allocated to one Member State only, it is appropriate to empower the Member State concerned in accordance with Article 2(1) of the Treaty to determine the level of such TAC. Provisions should be made to ensure that, when fixing that TAC level, the Member State concerned acts in a manner fully consistent with the principles and rules of the common fisheries policy. |
|
(7) |
Certain TACs allow Member States 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 to avoid discards and the waste of otherwise usable fish resources it entails. 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. This should enable to record in detail 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 is at this time a prerequisite for the achievement of discard reduction schemes such as fully documented fisheries, provided that 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 (3) are complied with. |
|
(8) |
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 with the Advisory Committee for Fisheries and Aquaculture and the Regional Advisory Councils concerned. |
|
(9) |
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 hake, of Norway lobster, of sole in the Bay of Biscay and the Western Channel, of herring to the west of Scotland and of cod in the Kattegat, to the west of Scotland and in the Irish Sea should be established in accordance with the rules laid down in: Council Regulation (EC) No 811/2004 of 21 April 2004 establishing measures for the recovery of the northern hake stock (4); Council Regulation (EC) No 2166/2005 of 20 December 2005 establishing measures for the recovery of the Southern hake and Norway lobster stocks in the Cantabrian Sea and Western Iberian peninsula (5); Council Regulation (EC) No 388/2006 of 23 February 2006 establishing a multiannual plan for the sustainable exploitation of the stock of sole in the Bay of Biscay (6); Council Regulation (EC) No 509/2007 of 7 May 2007 establishing a multi-annual plan for the sustainable exploitation of the stock of sole in the Western Channel (7); 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 (8); and Council Regulation (EC) No 1342/2008 of 18 December 2008 establishing a long-term plan for cod stocks and the fisheries exploiting those stocks (9) (the ‘Cod Plan’). |
|
(10) |
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 Council Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002, while taking into account stock-specific factors, including, in particular, available information on stock trends and mixed fisheries considerations. |
|
(11) |
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 (10), the stocks that are subject to the various measures referred to therein should be identified. |
|
(12) |
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. |
|
(13) |
Norway lobster is caught in mixed demersal fisheries together with various other species. In a zone to the west of Ireland, known as the Porcupine Bank, scientific advice has recommended that catches of this species do not increase in 2012. In order to help continue the recovery of the stock, it is appropriate to keep fishing opportunities confined, in a certain part of that zone and in certain periods, to the catching of pelagic species with which Norway lobster is not caught. |
|
(14) |
Since there is no scientific evidence that the TAC areas for pollack correspond to distinct biological stocks and the distribution of this species is continuous from the north of the British Isles to the south of the Iberian Peninsula, it is appropriate, in order to guarantee full use of the fishing opportunities, to allow the implementation of a flexible arrangement between some of the TAC areas. |
|
(15) |
It is necessary to establish the fishing effort ceilings for 2012 in accordance with Article 8 of Regulation (EC) No 2166/2005, Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 509/2007, Articles 11 and 12 of Regulation (EC) No 1342/2008, while taking into account Council 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 (11). |
|
(16) |
The use of fishing opportunities available to EU vessels set out in this Regulation is subject to Council Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 of 20 November 2009 establishing a Community control system for ensuring compliance with the rules of the common fisheries policy (12), and in particular to Articles 33 and 34 thereof 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. |
|
(17) |
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 2012, except for the provisions concerning fishing effort limits, which should apply from 1 February 2012. For reasons of urgency, this Regulation should enter into force immediately after its publication. |
|
(18) |
Fishing opportunities should be used in full compliance with the applicable law of the Union, |

ANNEX IIA
FISHING EFFORT FOR VESSELS IN THE CONTEXT OF THE MANAGEMENT OF COD STOCKS IN THE KATTEGAT, ICES DIVISIONS VIa AND VIIa, AND EU WATERS OF ICES DIVISION Vb
1. Scope
|
1.1. |
This Annex shall apply to EU vessels carrying on board or deploying any of the gears referred to 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 this 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 2012, 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 referred to in point 1 of Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1342/2008 and the groupings of geographical areas referred to in points 2(a), 2(c) and 2(d) 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 shall not issue an authorisation for fishing 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 for the 2012 management period, i.e. from 1 February 2012 to 31 January 2013, 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 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 concerned may reallocate effort between individual vessels or groups of vessels. |
|
5.3. |
If a Member State authorises vessels flying its flag 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 concerned 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 groupings of 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.

ANNEX IIB
FISHING EFFORT FOR VESSELS IN THE CONTEXT OF THE RECOVERY OF CERTAIN SOUTHERN HAKE AND NORWAY LOBSTER STOCKS IN ICES DIVISIONS VIIIc AND IXa EXCLUDING THE GULF OF CÁDIZ
CHAPTER I
GENERAL PROVISIONS
1. Scope
This Annex shall apply to EU vessels of 10 metres' length overall or more carrying on board or deploying trawls, Danish seines or similar gears of mesh size equal to or larger than 32 mm and gill-nets of mesh size equal to or larger than 60 mm or bottom longlines in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 2166/2005, and present in ICES divisions VIIIc and IXa excluding the Gulf of Cádiz.
2. Definitions
For the purposes of this Annex:
|
(a) |
‘gear grouping’ means the grouping of trawls, Danish seines or similar gears of mesh size equal to or larger than 32 mm and gill-nets of mesh size equal to or larger than 60 mm and bottom longlines; |
|
(b) |
‘regulated gear’ means any of the two gear categories belonging to the gear grouping; |
|
(c) |
‘area’ means ICES divisions VIIIc and IXa excluding the Gulf of Cádiz; |
|
(d) |
‘2012 management period’ means the period from 1 February 2012 to 31 January 2013; |
|
(e) |
‘special conditions’ means the special conditions set out in point 6.1. |
3. Limitation in activity
Without prejudice to Article 29 of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009, each Member State shall ensure that, when carrying on board any regulated gear, EU vessels flying its flag shall be present within the area for no more than the number of days specified in Chapter III of this Annex.
CHAPTER II
AUTHORISATIONS
4. Authorised vessels
|
4.1. |
A Member State shall not authorise fishing with a regulated gear in the area by any of vessels flying its flag which have no record of such fishing activity in the years 2002 to 2011 in the area, excluding the record of fishing activities as a result of transfer of days between fishing vessels, unless it ensures that equivalent capacity, measured in kilowatts, is prevented from fishing in the area. |
|
4.2. |
A vessel flying the flag of a Member State having no quotas in the area shall not be authorised to fish in the area with a regulated gear, unless the vessel is allocated a quota after a transfer as permitted in accordance with Article 20(5) of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 and is allocated days at sea in accordance with point 11 or 12 of this Annex. |
CHAPTER III
NUMBER OF DAYS PRESENT WITHIN THE AREA ALLOCATED TO EU VESSELS
5. Maximum number of days
|
5.1. |
During the 2012 management period, the maximum number of days at sea for which a Member State may authorise a vessel flying its flag to be present within the area having carried on board any regulated gear is shown in Table I. |
|
5.2. |
If a vessel is able to demonstrate that its hake catches represent less than 4 % of the total live weight of fish caught in a given fishing trip, the flag Member State of the vessel shall be allowed not to count the days at sea associated with that fishing trip against the applicable maximum number of days at sea as set out in Table I. |
6. Special conditions for the allocation of days
|
6.1. |
For the purposes of fixing the maximum number of days at sea an EU vessel may be authorised by its flag Member State to be present within the area, the following special conditions shall apply in accordance with Table I:
|
|
6.2. |
If a vessel benefits from an unlimited number of days as a result of its compliance with the special conditions, the vessel's landings in the 2012 management period shall not exceed 5 tonnes of the total landings in live weight of hake and 2,5 tonnes of the total landings in live weight of Norway lobster. |
|
6.3. |
When either of the special conditions is not met by a vessel, that vessel shall, with immediate effect, no longer be entitled to the allocation of days corresponding to the given special condition. |
|
6.4. |
The application of the special conditions referred to in point 6.1 may be transferred from one vessel to one or more other vessels which replace that vessel in the fleet, provided that the replacing vessel uses similar gear and does not have in any year of its operation a record of landings of hake and Norway lobster higher than the quantities specified in point 6.1.
Table I Maximum number of days a vessel may be present within the area by fishing gear per year
|
|||||||||||||||||
7. Kilowatt day system
|
7.1. |
A Member State may manage its fishing effort allocations in accordance with a kilowatt days system. Through that system it may authorise any vessel concerned by any regulated gear and special conditions as set out in Table I to be present within the area for a maximum number of days which is different from that set out in that Table, provided that the overall amount of kilowatt days corresponding to the regulated gear and to the special conditions is respected. |
|
7.2. |
This overall amount of kilowatt days shall be the sum of all individual fishing efforts allocated to the vessels flying the flag of that Member State and qualified for the regulated gear and, where applicable, the special conditions. Such individual fishing efforts shall be calculated in kilowatt days by multiplying the engine power of each vessel by the number of days at sea it would benefit from, according to Table I, if point 7.1 were not applied. For as long as the number of days is unlimited according to Table I, the relevant number of days the vessel would benefit from is 360. |
|
7.3. |
A Member State wishing to benefit from the system referred to in point 7.1 shall submit a request to the Commission, with reports in electronic format containing, for the gear grouping and special conditions as laid down in Table I, the details of the calculation based on:
|
|
7.4. |
On the basis of that request, the Commission shall assess whether the conditions referred to in point 7 are complied with and, where applicable, may authorise that Member State to benefit from the system referred to in point 7.1. |
8. Allocation of additional days for permanent cessation of fishing activities
|
8.1. |
An additional number of days at sea on which a vessel may be authorised by its flag Member State to be present within the area when carrying on board any regulated gear may be allocated to a Member State by the Commission on the basis of permanent cessations of fishing activities that have taken place between 1 February 2011 and 31 January 2012 either in accordance with Article 23 of Regulation (EC) No 1198/2006 (1) or Regulation (EC) No 744/2008 (2). Permanent cessations resulting from any other circumstances may be considered by the Commission on a case-by-case basis, following a written and duly motivated request from the Member State concerned. Such written request shall identify the vessels concerned and confirm, for each of them, that they shall never return to fishing activities. |
|
8.2. |
The effort expended in 2003 measured in kilowatt days of the withdrawn vessels using a given gear grouping shall be divided by the effort expended by all vessels using that gear grouping during 2003. The additional number of days at sea shall be then calculated by multiplying the ratio so obtained by the number of days that would have been allocated according to Table I. Any part of a day resulting from that calculation shall be rounded to the nearest whole day. |
|
8.3. |
Points 8.1 and 8.2 shall not apply where a vessel has been replaced in accordance with point 3 or 6.4, or when the withdrawal has already been used in previous years to obtain additional days at sea. |
|
8.4. |
A Member State wishing to benefit from the allocations referred to in point 8.1 shall submit a request to the Commission, by 15 June 2012, with reports in electronic format containing, for the gear grouping and special conditions as laid down in Table I, the details of the calculation based on:
|
|
8.5. |
On the basis of such a request by a Member State the Commission may, by means of implementing acts, allocate that Member State a number of days additional to that referred to in point 5.1 for that Member State. Those implementing acts shall be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 14(2). |
|
8.6. |
During the 2012 management period, a Member State may re-allocate those additional days at sea to all or part of the vessels remaining in fleet and qualified for the regulated gears. Additional days stemming from a withdrawn vessel that benefited from a special condition referred to in point 6.1(a) or (b) may not be allocated to a vessel remaining active that does not benefit from a special condition. |
|
8.7. |
When the Commission allocates additional days at sea due to a permanent cessation of fishing activities during the 2012 management period, the maximum number of days per Member State and gear shown in Table I shall be adjusted accordingly for the 2013 management period. |
9. Allocation of additional days for enhanced scientific observer coverage
|
9.1. |
Three additional days on which a vessel may be present within the area when carrying on board any regulated gear may be allocated to a Member State by the Commission on the basis of an enhanced programme of scientific observer coverage in partnership between scientists and the fishing industry. Such a programme shall focus in particular on levels of discarding and on catch composition and go beyond the requirements on data collection, as laid down in Regulation (EC) No 199/2008 (3) and its implementing rules for national programmes. |
|
9.2. |
Scientific observers shall be independent from the owner, the master of the vessel and any crew member. |
|
9.3. |
A Member State wishing to benefit from the allocations referred to in point 9.1 shall submit a description of its enhanced scientific observer coverage programme to the Commission for approval. |
|
9.4. |
On the basis of that description, and after consultation with STECF, the Commission may, by means of implementing acts, allocate the Member State concerned a number of days additional to that referred to in point 5.1 for that Member State and for the vessels, the area and gear concerned by the enhanced programme of scientific observers. Those implementing acts shall be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 14(2). |
|
9.5. |
If an enhanced scientific observer coverage programme submitted by a Member State has been approved by the Commission in the past and the Member State concerned wishes to continue its application without changes, it shall inform the Commission of the continuation of that programme 4 weeks before the beginning of the period for which the programme applies. |
CHAPTER IV
MANAGEMENT
10. General obligation
Member States shall manage the maximum allowable effort in accordance with the conditions laid down in Article 8 of Regulation (EC) No 2166/2005 and Articles 26 to 35 of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009.
11. Management periods
|
11.1. |
A Member State may divide the days present within the area set out in Table I into management periods of durations of 1 or more calendar months. |
|
11.2. |
The number of days or hours for which a vessel may be present within the area during a management period shall be fixed by the Member State concerned. |
|
11.3. |
Where a Member State authorises vessels flying its flag to be present within the area by hours, the Member State shall continue measuring the consumption of days as specified in point 10. Upon request by the Commission, the Member State shall demonstrate its precautionary measures taken to avoid an excessive consumption of days within the area due to a vessel terminating presences in the area before the end of a 24-hour period. |
CHAPTER V
EXCHANGES OF FISHING EFFORT ALLOCATIONS
12. Transfer of days between fishing vessels flying the flag of a Member State
|
12.1. |
A Member State may permit any fishing vessel flying its flag to transfer days present within the area for which it has been authorised to another vessel flying its flag within the area, provided that the product of the days received by a vessel multiplied by its engine power in kilowatts (kilowatt days) is equal to or less than the product of the days transferred by the donor vessel and the engine power in kilowatts of that vessel. The engine power in kilowatts of the vessels shall be that recorded for each vessel in the EU fishing fleet register. |
|
12.2. |
The total number of days present within the area transferred in accordance with point 12.1, multiplied by the engine power in kilowatts of the donor vessel, shall not be higher than the donor vessel's average annual days track record in the area as verified by the fishing logbook in the years 2009 and 2010 multiplied by the engine power in kilowatts of that vessel. |
|
12.3. |
The transfer of days as described in point 12.1 shall be permitted between vessels operating with any regulated gear and during the same management period. |
|
12.4. |
Transfer of days is only permitted for vessels benefiting from an allocation of fishing days without special conditions. |
|
12.5. |
On request from the Commission, Member States shall provide information on the transfers that have taken place. Formats of spreadsheet for the collection and transmission of information referred to in this point may be established by the Commission by means of implementing acts. Those implementing acts shall be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 14(2). |
13. Transfer of days between fishing vessels flying the flag of different Member States
Member States may permit transfer of days present within the area for the same management period and within the area between any fishing vessels flying their flags provided that points 4.1 and 4.2 and 12 apply mutatis mutandis. Where Member States decide to authorise such a transfer, they shall notify the Commission, before the transfer takes place, of the details of the transfer, including the number of days, the fishing effort and, where applicable, the fishing quotas relating thereto.
CHAPTER VI

ANNEX IIC
FISHING EFFORT FOR VESSELS IN THE CONTEXT OF THE MANAGEMENT OF WESTERN CHANNEL SOLE STOCKS IN ICES DIVISION VIIe
CHAPTER I
GENERAL PROVISIONS
1. Scope
|
1.1. |
This Annex shall apply to EU vessels of 10 metres length overall or more carrying on board or deploying any of the gears specified in point 2 of this Annex in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 509/2007, and present in ICES division VIIe. For the purposes of this Annex, a reference to the 2012 management period means the period from 1 February 2012 to 31 January 2013. |
|
1.2. |
Vessels fishing with static nets with mesh size equal to or larger than 120 mm and with track records of less than 300 kg live weight of sole according to the fishing logbook in 2004 shall be exempt from the application of this Annex provided that:
When either of these conditions is not met, the vessels concerned shall, with immediate effect, cease to be exempt from the application of this Annex. |
2. Fishing gear
For the purposes of this Annex, the following groupings of fishing gears shall apply:
|
(a) |
beam trawls of mesh size equal to or greater than 80 mm; |
|
(b) |
static nets including gill-nets, trammel-nets and tangle-nets with mesh size equal to or less than 220 mm. |
3. Limitations in activity
Each Member State shall ensure that, when carrying on board any of the groupings of fishing gears specified in point 2, fishing vessels flying its flag and registered in the Union shall be present within the area for no more than the number of days set out in Chapter III.
CHAPTER II
AUTHORISATIONS
4. Authorised vessels
|
4.1. |
Vessels using gear types specified in point 2 of this Annex and fishing in the area specified in point 1.1 of this Annex shall hold fishing authorisations issued in accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009. |
|
4.2. |
A Member State shall not authorise fishing with a gear belonging to a grouping of fishing gears specified in point 2 in the area by any of vessels flying its flag which have no record of such fishing activity in the years 2002 to 2011 in that area unless it ensures that equivalent capacity, measured in kilowatts, is prevented from fishing in the regulated area. |
|
4.3. |
However, a vessel with a track record of using a gear belonging to a grouping of fishing gears specified in point 2 may be authorised to use a different fishing gear, provided that the number of days allocated to this latter gear is greater than or equal to the number of days allocated to the first gear. |
|
4.4. |
A vessel flying the flag of a Member State having no quotas in the area shall not be authorised to fish in that area with a gear belonging to a grouping of fishing gear specified in point 2, unless the vessel is allocated a quota after a transfer as permitted in accordance with the Article 20(5) of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 and is allocated days at sea in accordance with point 10 or 11 of this Annex. |
CHAPTER III
NUMBER OF DAYS PRESENT WITHIN THE AREA ALLOCATED TO EU VESSELS
5. Maximum number of days
During the 2012 management period, the maximum number of days at sea for which a Member State may authorise a vessel flying its flag to be present within the area having carried on board and used any one of the fishing gears specified in point 2 is shown in Table I.

6. Kilowatt day system
|
6.1. |
During the 2012 management period, a Member State may manage its fishing effort allocation according to a kilowatt days system. Through that system it may authorise any vessel concerned to be present within the area for a maximum number of days which is different from that set out in Table I for any one of the groupings of fishing gears laid down in that Table, provided that the overall amount of kilowatt days corresponding to such a grouping is respected. |
|
6.2. |
For a specific grouping of fishing gears, the overall amount of kilowatt days shall be the sum of all individual fishing efforts allocated to the vessels flying the flag of the Member State concerned and qualified for that specific grouping. Such individual fishing efforts shall be calculated in kilowatt days by multiplying the engine power of each vessel by the number of days at sea it would benefit from, according to Table I, if point 6.1 were not applied. |
|
6.3. |
A Member State wishing to benefit from the system referred to in point 6.1 shall submit a request to the Commission, with reports in electronic format containing, for each grouping of fishing gears, the details of the calculation based on:
|
|
6.4. |
On the basis of that request, the Commission shall assess whether the conditions referred to in point 6 are complied with and, where applicable, may authorise that Member State to benefit from the system referred to in point 6.1. |
7. Allocation of additional days for permanent cessations of fishing activities
|
7.1. |
An additional number of days at sea on which a vessel may be authorised by its flag Member State to be present within the area when carrying on board any of the gears specified in point 2 may be allocated to a Member State by the Commission on the basis of permanent cessations of fishing activities that have taken place since 1 January 2004 either in accordance with Article 23 of Regulation (EC) No 1198/2006 or Regulation (EC) No 744/2008. Permanent cessations resulting from any other circumstances may be considered by the Commission on a case-by-case basis, following a written and duly motivated request from the Member State concerned. Such written request shall identify the vessels concerned and confirm, for each of them, that they shall never return to fishing activities. |
|
7.2. |
The effort expended in 2003 measured in kilowatt days of the withdrawn vessels using a given gear grouping shall be divided by the effort expended by all vessels using that gear grouping during 2003. The additional number of days at sea shall be then calculated by multiplying the ratio so obtained by the number of days that would have been allocated according to Table I. Any part of a day resulting from that calculation shall be rounded to the nearest whole day. |
|
7.3. |
Points 7.1 and 7.2 shall not apply where a vessel has been replaced in accordance with point 4.2 or when the withdrawal has already been used in previous years to obtain additional days at sea. |
|
7.4. |
A Member State wishing to benefit from the allocations referred to in point 7.1 shall submit a request to the Commission, by 15 June 2012, with reports in electronic format containing for each grouping of fishing gears the details of the calculation based on:
|
|
7.5. |
On the basis of such a request by a Member State the Commission shall, by means of implementing acts, allocate that Member State a number of days additional to that referred to in point 5 for that Member State. Those implementing acts shall be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 14(2). |
|
7.6. |
During the 2012 management period, a Member State may re-allocate those additional numbers of days at sea to all or parts of the vessels remaining in fleet and qualified for the relevant grouping of fishing gears. |
|
7.7. |
A Member State may not re-allocate in the 2012 management period any additional number of days resulting from a permanent cessation of activity previously allocated by the Commission, unless the Commission has taken a decision that reassesses those additional numbers of days on the basis of the current gear groupings and limitations in days at sea. Upon the Member State's request to reassess the number of days, the Member State is provisionally authorised to reallocate 50 % of the additional number of days, until the Commission takes its decision. |
8. Allocation of additional days for enhanced scientific observer coverage
|
8.1. |
Three additional days on which a vessel may be present within the area when carrying on board any of the groupings of fishing gear specified in point 2 may be allocated between 1 February 2012 and 31 January 2013 to Member States by the Commission on the basis of an enhanced programme of scientific observer coverage in partnership between scientists and the fishing industry. Such a programme shall focus in particular on levels of discarding and on catch composition and go beyond the requirements on data collection, as laid down in Regulation (EC) No 199/2008 and Regulation (EC) No 665/2008 (1) for national programmes. |
|
8.2. |
Observers shall be independent from the owner, the master of the fishing vessel and any crew member. |
|
8.3. |
A Member State wishing to benefit from the allocations referred to in point 8.1 shall submit a description of its enhanced scientific observer coverage programme to the Commission for approval. |
|
8.4. |
On the basis of that description, and after consultation with STECF, the Commission may, by means of implementing acts, allocate that Member State a number of days additional to that referred to in point 5 for that Member State and for the vessels, the area and gear concerned by the enhanced programme of observers. Those implementing acts shall be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 14(2). |
|
8.5. |
If an enhanced scientific observer coverage programme submitted by a Member State has been approved by the Commission in the past and the Member State concerned wishes to continue its application without changes, it shall inform the Commission of the continuation of that programme 4 weeks before the beginning of the period for which the programme applies. |
CHAPTER IV
MANAGEMENT
9. General obligation
Member States shall manage the maximum allowable effort in accordance with Articles 26 to 35 of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009.
10. Management periods
|
10.1. |
A Member State may divide the days present within the area set out in Table I into management periods of durations of 1 or more calendar months. |
|
10.2. |
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. |
|
10.3. |
Where a Member State authorises vessels to be present within the area by hours, the Member State shall continue measuring the consumption of days as specified in point 3. Upon request by the Commission, the Member State shall demonstrate its precautionary measures taken to avoid an excessive consumption of days within the area due to a vessel terminating presences in the area that do not coincide with the end of a 24-hour period. |
CHAPTER V
EXCHANGES OF FISHING EFFORT ALLOCATIONS
11. Transfer of days between fishing vessels flying the flag of a Member State
|
11.1. |
A Member State may permit any fishing vessels flying its flag to transfer days present within the area for which it has been authorised to another vessels flying its flag within the area, provided that the product of the days received by a vessel and its engine power in kilowatts (kilowatt days) is equal to or less than the product of the days transferred by the donor vessel and the engine power in kilowatts of that vessel. The engine power in kilowatts of the vessels shall be that recorded for each vessel in the EU fishing fleet register. |
|
11.2. |
The total number of days present within the area transferred in accordance with point 11.1, multiplied by the engine power in kilowatts of the donor vessel, shall not be higher than the donor vessel's average annual days track record in the area as verified by the fishing logbook in the years 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005 multiplied by the engine power in kilowatts of that vessel. |
|
11.3. |
The transfer of days as described in point 11.1 shall be permitted only between vessels operating within the same gear grouping specified in point 2 and during the same management period. |
|
11.4. |
On request from the Commission, Member States shall provide information on the transfers that have taken place. Formats of spreadsheet for the collection and transmission of information referred to in this point may be established by the Commission by means of implementing acts. Those implementing acts shall be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 14(2). |
12. Transfer of days between fishing vessels flying the flag of different Member States
Member States may permit transfer of days present within the area for the same management period and within the area between any fishing vessels flying their flags provided that points 4.2, 4.4, 5, 6 and 10 apply mutatis mutandis. Where Member States decide to authorise such a transfer, as a preliminary they shall notify the Commission before the transfer takes place, the details of the transfer, including the number of days transferred, the fishing effort and, where applicable, the fishing quotas relating thereto, as agreed between them.
CHAPTER VI
REPORTING OBLIGATIONS
