Recital 1
(1) One of the objectives of the Common Fisheries Policy, as set out in Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council21 , is to ensure exploitation of marine biological resources in a way that provides sustainable economic, environmental and social conditions. Furthermore, according to Article 28 of the above-mentioned Regulation, the Union shall ensure that its fishing activities outside Union waters are based on the same principles and standards as those applicable under Union law in the area of the CFP, while promoting a level–playing field for Union operators vis-à-vis third-country operators. __________________ 21 Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 December 2013 on the Common Fisheries Policy, amending Council Regulations (EC) No 1954/2003 and (EC) No 1224/2009 and repealing Council Regulations (EC) No 2371/2002 and (EC) No 639/2004 and Council Decision 2004/585/EC (OJ L 354, 28.12.2013, p. 22).

Recital 11
Recital 11
(11) In 2022, the Union, the Faroe Islands, Greenland, Iceland, Norway and the United Kingdom held consultations on control measures for certain pelagic fisheries in the North-East Atlantic. Those consultations were concluded in November 2022, on the basis of the Union position endorsed by the Council on 14 October 2022. The measures agreed in these consultations32 should be implemented into Union law. In accordance with the agreement of the Parties to these fisheries consultations, the application of certain measures should be deferred in order to provide for sufficient implementation time. These measures should not be applicable until all Parties to these fisheries consultations cease adopting unilateral fisheries measures, thus jeopardising the state of certain pelagic stocks, and honour their obligations vis-à-vis to each other. __________________ 32 Agreed Record signed by Heads of Delegation of respective Parties in November 2022 (https://oceans-and- fisheries.ec.europa.eu/system/files/2022- 12/2022-coastal-states-fisheries- consultations-control-measures_en.pdf).

Recital 11 a (new)
(11a) The Parties to the above- mentioned consultations agreed that the measures shall apply to landings exceeding 10 tonnes. Therefore, the obligation to ensure surveillance of landings of certain pelagic stocks through camera and sensor technologies in landing and processing facilities should apply to ports where there is big concentration of landings exceeding 10 tonnes. Measures should not impose additional cost and burden to ports where small scale vessels land.

Amendment 79 #
Proposal for a regulation
Article 52 – paragraph 1
Article 52 – paragraph 1
1. Port Member States shall ensure surveillance by camera and sensor technologies at landing and processing facilities where more than 3,000 tonnes per year of the species referred to in Article 48 are weighed. Only landings above 10 tonnes should be counted to determine the threshold of 3,000 tonnes. In the case of landing and processing facilities where landings above 10 tonnes do not amount to more than 3,000 tonnes per calendar year, but where total landings (including those below 10 tonnes) reach that threshold, surveillance of landings above 10 tonnes should be ensured through measures equivalent to camera and sensor technologies.
