Proposal for a regulation
Recital 4 a (new)

(4a) It is stated in paragraph 25 of the European Parliament resolution of 15 December 2015 on a new CFP: structure for technical measures and multiannual plans (2015/2092(INI)) that incidental artisanal fishing in the inland waters of the Member States and regions must remain outside the TACs.

Recital 12

(12) Small -scale fisheries play an important role in the Union, from a biological, economic and social perspective. Considering the possible impacts of small -scale fisheries on stocks, it is important to ~~control~~oversee thate fishing activities and fishing efforts of smaller vessels ~~are in compliance with the rules of the common fisheries policy~~. For this purpose, it is necessary to obtain position data of those vessels. Therefore, Member States should be able to track all fishing vessels, including fishing vessels which are less than 12 metres’ length. For vessels 12 metres’ length it is now possible to use mobile devices which are less expensive and easy to usework with the industry in drawing up rules that are tailored to suit small-scale and artisanal fleets. This Regulation should not apply to those fleets, and until such time as the new regulation applies, the current rules should apply.

Recital 14

(14) Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 has been amended by Regulation (EU) 2015/812 of the Parliament and Council31 in order to align certain of its provisions to the landing obligation set in Article 15 of Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013. In order to allow the proper control of the landing obligation, it is necessary to equip, on the basis of a risk assessment, a certain percentage of fishing vessels ~~should be equipped~~ with continuous recording electronic monitoring devices, including Cclose Cd-circuit Ttelevisions (CCTV). CCTV data may be supplemented by data from other electronic monitoring devices. Data from theose devices, including from CCTV, will provide Member State officials with means to control compliance with the landing obligation at sea. The CCTV footage should only concern the gears and the parts of the vessels where fishery products are brought on board, handled and stored. FCCTV footage ~~from CCTVs~~ should be recorded locally and should be made available exclusively to Member States officials or Union inspectors upon requests, in particular in the context of inspections, investigations or audits. This obligation should not apply to artisanal and small-scale fishing. __________________ 31Regulation (EU) 2015/812 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 May 2015 amending Council Regulations (EC) No 850/98, (EC) No 2187/2005, (EC) No 1967/2006, (EC) No 1098/2007, (EC) No 254/2002, (EC) No 2347/2002 and (EC) No 1224/2009, and Regulations (EU) No 1379/2013 and (EU) No 1380/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council, as regards the landing obligation, and repealing Council Regulation (EC) No 1434/98 (OJ L 133, 29.5.2015, p. 1).

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 16

(16) The submission of catch registration data on paper formats has led to incomplete and unreliable reporting and ultimately to inadequate catch reporting by operators to Member States and by Member States to the Commission, and has hampered the exchange of information between Member States. It is therefore considered necessary that masters of vessels, excluding the small-scale and artisanal fleet, record data concerning catches in a digital way and submit them electronically, in particular the logbooks, transhipment declarations and landing declarations.

Recital 17

(17) The absence of catch reporting obligations by masters of vessels less than 10 metres’ length led to incomplete and unreliable data for such vessels as the data collection for those vessels was based on sampling plans. Therefore it is important to require reporting of catches for all fishing vessels without regard to their size. In this way the rules will also be simplified and compliance and controls will be improved.deleted

Recital 18

(18) For vessels of 12 metres’ length or more, it is important that the information in the logbook is made more accurate and includes data on the catches by haul or by operation, as this will enhance the effectiveness of controls. In the case of vessels less than 12 metres’ length, the obligations pertaining to the completion and submission of the logbook should be simplified and masters should only be required to submit the information contained in logbook once, before arrival at port.

Recital 19

(19) The provisions on the margin of tolerance in logbook estimates of quantities of fish retained on board should be amended to take into account the new rules pertaining to the reporting of catches below 50 kg in logbooks. In addition, the provisions on the margin of tolerance should be amended in order to address the specificity of catches which are landed unsorted.deleted

Recital 20

(20) When a fishing vessel departs, it should immediately start an electronic logbook and a unique fishing trip identifier number is assigned for that trip. The logbook, transhipment declarations and landing declarations should include a reference to this unique fishing trip identifier number to allow enhanced controls and to improve the validation of the data by Member States and the traceability of fishery products in the supply chain. In order to improve and simplify the transmission of information on fishing gear losses to Member State competent authorities, the logbook format should include information on lost gears. This obligation should not apply to artisanal and small-scale fishing.

Recital 58

(58) Processing of personal data is necessary for the fisheries control and enforcement. In particular, for the purpose of monitoring of fishing opportunities, including quota consumption, the Commission should be able to process data from logbooks, landing declarations, sales notes and other fishing activity data in order to carry out validation of the aggregated data submitted by Member States. To carry out verifications, audits and to monitor the control activities of Member States, the Commission should have access and process information such as inspection and control observers’ reports and the database of infringements. In the context of preparation of and compliance with the international agreements and conservation measures, the Commission should process, when necessary, data on the fishing activities of Union fishing vessels outside Union waters, including the vessel identification numbers, name of the owner of the vessel and the master of the vessel.deleted

Recital 74

(74) The Catch Certification Scheme, as set out in Chapter III of Regulation (EC) No 1005/2008, is paper-based and as a result not efficient and not in line with a digitalised traceability system for fishery products. In line with its international commitments and to ensure effective implementation of the scheme, Regulation (EC) No 1005/2008 should be amended to establish a data base for the management of catch certificates (CATCH) based on the Information Management System for Official Controls, allowing for risk based controls, reducing opportunities of fraudulent imports and easing the administrative burden of Member States. The operational functions of the CATCH will be developed in different phases.
