Draft recommendations Control regulation

Two amendments from working group II:

Article 48 Lost gear If lost fishing gear cannot be retrieved, article 48(3) requires masters of fishing vessels to record information about the lost gear in the logbook. For practical reasons, the Pelagic AC asks for clarification where in the logbook this information should be recorded. Regarding the requirement to record the time of the loss of gear, the Pelagic AC would like to note that there may be a gap between the actual loss of gear and the moment when the loss is noticed. The Pelagic AC seeks clarity on the application of this provision.

Working Group II, 10 July 2019, Lisbon, Portugal

Draft recommendations Control regulation

Two amendments from working group II:

Article 59a, 60 & 60a Weighing systems Add comment: The Pelagic AC recalls that article 54 of the current implementing regulation 404/2011, states that the landing

  • peration shall be regarded to have been completed when

the fisheries products are transported from the place of landing before they have been weighed. The Pelagic AC would like to request clarification whether this article still applies or whether the new weighing provisions repeals this article.
