EUROPEAN COMMISSION Brussels, 1.6.2018 COM(2018) 376 final Recommendation for a COUNCIL DECISION to authorise the Commission to open negotiations on behalf of the European Union to accede to the Convention for the Conservation and Management of High Seas Fisheries Resources in the North Pacific Ocean





EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM 1.CONTEXT OF THE PROPOSAL •Reasons for and objectives of the proposal Following a request from the EU Member States and a number of EU fishing operators, the Commission proposes that the EU accedes to the Convention for the Conservation and Management of High Seas Fisheries Resources in the North Pacific Ocean (ʻthe Conventionʼ) as a member of the North Pacific Fisheries Commission (NPFC), the body set up by the Convention to manage the area’s fisheries. EU accession to the Convention would accord with the wish to seek access to its resources, as expressed by EU Member States and the relevant Union fleet. This would also provide a firm basis for the sustainable management and conservation of marine biological resources and the marine environment managed by the NPFC. This is in line with Article 28 of Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013 on the Common Fisheries Policy of the European Parliament and of the Council and with the Council Conclusions of 19 March 2012 on the Communication from the Commission ‘External dimension of the Common Fisheries Policy’. The Convention does not provide for any negotiable rights or duties between the acceding contracting party and the NPFC. Accession to the Convention and membership or cooperating non-contracting Party (CNCP) status in the NPFC require full acceptance of the provisions in force at the time of accession. •Consistency with existing policy provisions in the policy area Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) are international organisations of countries, some of which are coastal states; regional integration organisations, such as the EU; and fishing entities with fishing interests in a given area. Some RFMOs manage all the fish stocks within a specific area, while others focus on particular highly migratory species, notably tuna, throughout vast geographical areas. While some are purely advisory, most have management powers to set catch and fishing effort limits, technical measures, and control obligations. In line with the Commission communication ‘Participation in regional fisheries organisations (RFOs)’ the European Union, represented by the Commission, plays an active role in 6 tuna organisations and 11 non-tuna organisations. In accordance the Joint Communication by the High Representative of the EU for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and the European Commission ‘International ocean governance: an agenda for the future of oceans’ and the Council conclusions on that joint communication, promoting measures to support and enhance the effectiveness of RFMOs and, where relevant, improve their governance is a central feature of the EU’s action in these fora. •Consistency with other Union policies Not applicable 2.LEGAL BASIS, SUBSIDIARITY AND PROPORTIONALITY •Legal basis The current Recommendation for a Council Decision is based on the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 218(3) and (4) thereof. •Subsidiarity (for non-exclusive competence) Not applicable. •Proportionality Not applicable.

•Choice of instrument Under Article 218(3) and (4) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, the Commission submits recommendations to the Council, which adopts a decision authorising the opening of negotiations. The Council may adress directives to the negotiator and designate a special committee to oversee the negotiations in accordance with the negotiating directives. 3.RESULTS OF EX-POST EVALUATIONS, STAKEHOLDER CONSULTATIONS AND IMPACT ASSESSMENTS •Ex-post evaluations/fitness checks of existing legislation Not applicable. •Stakeholder consultations The Member States and a number of EU individual fishing operators asked the Commission to start accession negotiations at the end of 2017. The relevant organisations and interest groups were consulted in early 2018 to ensure that future negotiations the EU’s possible accession to the North Pacific Fisheries Commission take their views into account. They included the representatives of the Member States’ administrations, the EU fisheries industry and NGOs, as well as EU citizens and consumers. In the course of the consultations, the EU fisheries industry urged for effective steps taken by the EU institutions to secure the possibility for the EU fleet to commence fishing activities in the region of NPFC as of 1 July 2018. In their view, possibly the fastest way to achieve this is a two-step approach by which the EU becomes in first instance a cooperating non-contracting Party with the expressed ambition of becoming a full member of the NPFC soon afterwards. No other comments were received during the consultations. •Collection and use of expertise Not applicable. •Impact assessment Not applicable. •Regulatory fitness and simplification Not applicable. •Fundamental rights Not applicable. 4.BUDGETARY IMPLICATIONS EU accession to the Convention will require the payment of a yearly financial contribution to the NPFC from budget line 11.03.02 (Compulsory contributions to RFMOs), estimated at EUR 90.000 annually. The EU contribution could increase, depending on the EU’s future fishing records in the NPFC. The exact amount will be established in the relevant budget lines in the annual budget procedure. Voluntary contributions to the organisation’s budget under budget line 11.06.62.03, to promote scientific research, are also likely. These are estimated at about EUR 200.000/year. Budget line 11.01.04.01 also provides for technical assistance to support the provision of scientific advice at the NPFC meeting. The cost of this is estimated at EUR 10.000/year. 5.OTHER ELEMENTS •Implementation plans and monitoring, evaluation and reporting arrangements

Not applicable. •Explanatory documents (for directives) Not applicable. •Detailed explanation of the specific provisions of the proposal Not applicable. Recommendation for a COUNCIL DECISION to authorise the Commission to open negotiations on behalf of the European Union to accede to the Convention for the Conservation and Management of High Seas Fisheries Resources in the North Pacific Ocean

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION, Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 218(3) and (4) thereof, Having regard to the recommendation from the European Commission, Whereas: (1)The Union is competent to adopt measures for the conservation of marine biological resources under the common fisheries policy and to enter into agreements with third countries and international organisations. (2)Pursuant to Council Decision 98/392/EC, the Union is a Contracting Party to the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea of 10 December 1982. That convention requires all members of the international community to cooperate in conserving and managing the biological resources of the sea. (3)Pursuant to Council Decision 98/414/EC, the Union is a Contracting Party to the Agreement on the implementation of the provisions of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea of 10 December 1982, relating to the Conservation and Management of Straddling Fish Stocks and Highly Migratory Fish Stocks. (4)The EU Member States and fishing operators have expressed their interest to fish in the area of the Convention for the Conservation and Management of High Seas Fisheries Resources in the North Pacific Ocean (ʻthe Conventionʼ). (5)The Convention allows for the accession of Regional Economic Integration Organisations to the Convention. The North Pacific Fisheries Commission (ʻNPFCʼ) is the body established to perform the functions foreseen by the Convention. Parties to the Convention participate in the decision-making process. As a general rule, the NPFC adopts its decisions by consensus. (6)Subject to the terms and conditions established by the North Pacific Fisheries Commission, a cooperating non-contracting Party (ʻCNCPʼ) may participate in the fisheries subject to its commitment to comply with, and its record of compliance with, the NPFC conservation and management measures. CNCPs do not participate in the decision-making process but are obliged to cooperate fully with the NPFC and apply the conservation and management measures adopted by the Commission. CNCPs are encouraged to make a contribution to the budget of the NPFC. (7)It is appropriate to ensure the Union’s conservation approach across the world’s oceans and reinforce its commitment to the long-term conservation and sustainable use of fisheries resources globally. In accordance the Joint Communication by the High Representative of the EU for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and the European Commission ‘International ocean governance: an agenda for the future of oceans’ and the Council conclusions on that joint communication, promoting measures to support and enhance the effectiveness of RFMOs and, where relevant, improve their governance is a central feature of the EU’s action in these fora.

(8)Negotiations should be opened with a view to the accession of the European Union to the Convention. Should it become apparent that it is impossible for the EU to accede to the Convention, or to do so within a reasonable timeframe, it is appropriate to negotiate the terms of participation of the EU as a CNCP. HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION: Article 1 The Commission is hereby authorised to negotiate, on behalf of the European Union, with a view to accede to the Convention for the Conservation and Management of High Seas Fisheries Resources in the North Pacific Ocean (ʻthe Conventionʼ). Article 2 If it appears during the negotiation for the accession to the Convention, that it is impossible for the EU to accede to the Convention or to do so within a reasonable timeframe, the Commission is hereby authrorised to negotiate, on behalf of the European Union, the terms of participation of the EU as a CNCP to the North Pacific Fisheries Commission. Article 3 These negotiations shall be conducted in consultation with the special committee designated by the Council and in accordance with the negotiating directives set out in the Annexes. Article 4 This Decision is addressed to the Commission.

1.2.Policy area(s) concerned in the ABM/ABB structure To promote ocean governance at international level 1.3.Nature of the proposal/initiative X The proposal/initiative relates to a new action ◻ The proposal/initiative relates to a new action following a pilot project/preparatory action ◻ The proposal/initiative relates to the extension of an existing action ◻ The proposal/initiative relates to an action redirected towards a new action 1.4.Objective(s) 1.4.1.The Commission’s multiannual strategic objective(s) targeted by the proposal/initiative A stronger global actor 1.4.2.Specific objective(s) and ABM/ABB activity(ies) concerned Specific objective To promote ocean governance at international level Specific objective No 3 Sustainable fisheries worldwide and improved international governance by 2020 1.4.3.Expected result(s) and impact Specify the effects which the proposal/initiative should have on the beneficiaries/groups targeted. The EU Member States and economic operators should have access to Convention Area managed by the North Pacific Fisheries Commission (NPFC). It shold further promote the Union’s conservation approach across oceans and reinforce its commitment to the long-term conservation and sustainable use of fisheries resources globally. 1.4.4.Indicators of results and impact

Specify the indicators for monitoring implementation of the proposal/initiative. Number of EU fishing vessels engaged in the fishery Number of EU catches Improved long-term sustainability of the stocks Number of NPFC meetings attended by the EU 1.5.Grounds for the proposal/initiative 1.5.1.Requirement(s) to be met in the short or long term EU operators in the Netherlands, Lithuania, Latvia, Poland and Germany are seeking to enlarge their fishing operations to the North Pacific in order to further consolidate themselves as global actors. Economies of scale will be promoted too as the EU fleet is already engaged in fishing operations further south in the neighbouring RFMO: the South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO). The participation of the EU in the works of the NPFC will also contribute to the long-term sustainability of the stocks and support the scientific research in line with the Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) external objectives. 1.5.2.Added value of EU involvement Added value of Union involvement (it may result from different factors, e.g. coordination gains, legal certainty, greater effectiveness or complementarities). For the purposes of this point 'added value of Union involvement' is the value resulting from Union intervention which is additional to the value that would have been otherwise created by Member States alone. Reasons for action at European level (ex-ante) The conservation of marine biological resources falls under the exclusive competence of the EU according to Article 3 (1d) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU). Expected generated EU added value (ex-post) In line with Article 28 of the CFP’s ʻbasic regulationʼ, the EU accession to the NFPC will have as it mains purpose to: (a) access the resources of the NPFC; (b) actively support and contribute to the development of scientific knowledge and advice; (c) improve policy coherence with the Union initiatives, with particular regard to environmental, trade and development activities and strengthen consistency of actions taken in the context of development cooperation and scientific, technical and economic cooperation; (d) contribute to sustainable fishing activities that are economically viable and promote employment within the Union; (e) ensure that Union 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; (f) promote and support, in all international spheres, action necessary to eradicate IUU-fishing;

(g) promote the establishment and the strengthening of a country-by-country compliance mechanism. 1.5.3.Lessons learned from similar experiences in the past The Commission’s actions at international and bilateral level are an important element of its priority to strengthen the role of the EU as a global actor. The EU positions in the RFMOs, to which the EU is a Party are all based on the best available scientific advice, on the standards and principles of the CFP and our international approach to ocean governance. However, positions of other contracting Parties do not always allow to gather full support. The Commission represents the EU at RFMOs meetings, so DG MARE has taken the lead in all those negotiations, consistently ensuring appropriate consultations with Member States and relevant stakeholders, to promote the objectives of the CFP globally. 1.5.4.Compatibility and possible synergy with other appropriate instruments The proposal drives forward the global and multilateral agenda promoting sustainable fisheries worldwide to address crucial issues such as eradication of illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing or reduction of overcapacity. It better integrates the fisheries, development, environment, trade and other policies to further advance the objectives of sustainable and responsible governance. 1.6.Duration and financial impact ◻ Proposal/initiative of limited duration –◻ Proposal/initiative in effect from [DD/MM]YYYY to [DD/MM]YYYY –◻ Financial impact from YYYY to YYYY X Proposal/initiative of unlimited duration –Implementation with a start-up period from 2018, –followed by full-scale operation. 1.7.Management mode(s) planned X Direct management by the Commission –X by its departments, including by its staff in the Union delegations; –◻ by the executive agencies ◻ Shared management with the Member States ◻ Indirect management by entrusting budget implementation tasks to: –◻ third countries or the bodies they have designated;
