Amendment 39 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 24
(24) Where no technical measures are in place at regional level then defined baseline standards should apply. Those baseline standards should be derived from existing technical measures, taking account of STECF advice and the opinions of stakeholders. They should consist of bBaseline mesh sizes for towed gears and static nets, minimum conservation reference sizes, closed or restricted areas, nature conservation measures to mitigate against bycatches of marine mammals and seabirds in certain areas and any other regionally specific measures currently in existence that are still required to ensure conservation objectives continue to be met until such times measures are put in place under regionalisationare, in any case, subject to rules adopted at regional level in accordance with the provisions of Article 18 of Regulation 1380/2013.

Amendment 45 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 27
(27) The main instrument for establishing regional technical measures should be throughUnder the multiannual plans as defined in the CFP. Under such multiannual plans the baseline standards may be amended, new measures established to supplement or replace the baseline standards or derogate from these measures where it can be demonstrated they have no conservation benefit or that alternative measures have been put in place that ensure the objectives and targets continue to be met. In accordance with Article 10 of Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013, multiannual plans may also contain other nature conservation measures to minimise the negative impact of fishing on the ecosystem, such as the ones necessary for the purpose of complying with the obligations under Article 13(4) of Directive 2008/56/EC, Article 4 of Directive 2009/147/EC or Article 6 of Directive 92/43/EEC.
