WRITTEN QUESTION No. 1306/97 by Amedeo AMADEO to the Commission. Safety regime for fishing vessels  


Official Journal C 367 , 04/12/1997 P. 0115 





WRITTEN QUESTION E-1306/97 by Amedeo Amadeo (NI) to the Commission (11 April 1997)Subject: Safety regime for fishing vesselsThe Commission has submitted a proposal for a Council Directive setting up a harmonized safety regime for fishing vessels of 24 metres in length and over (COM(96)255 final - 96/0168 SYN) ((OJ C 292, 4.10.1996, p. 29. )), (CES 1392/96/0168 SYN).It is extremely important that, as the Commission proposes, common safety standards and requirements be laid down for fishing vessels of 24 metres in length and over, as a first step. The Commission's intention to consider introducing new measures over and above those already laid down for other existing vessels and for vessels under 24 metres in length also deserves support.Would the Commission ensure that the relevant studies are available by 1 January 1998, so as to enable the new proposals which it intends to submit to cover the above types of vessel as well?Joint answer to Written Questions E-1306/97, E-1307/97 and E-1308/97 given by Mr Kinnock on behalf of the Commission (22 May 1997)In the explanatory memorandum of the Commission's proposal for a Council Directive setting up a harmonised safety regime for fishing vessels of 24 metres in length and over ((OJ C 292, 4.10.1996. )), the Commission stated that it intends to examine whether, for fishing vessels below 24 metres in length, further measures are required to complement those already included in Council Directive 93/103/EC of 23 November 1993 on the minimum health and safety requirements for work on board fishing vessels ((OJ L 307, 13.12.1993. )). The Commission envisages that a study on the issue will be undertaken in the second half of 1997.The provisions of the Commission's proposal will give Member States the legal power to subject a fishing vessel flying the flag of a third country and operating in their internal waters or territorial seas or landing its catch in their ports to control in order to verify compliance with the safety standards required by this Directive. Logistic means for executing such controls both on-shore and off-shore are already in place in the framework of Council Directive 95/21/EC on Port State Control ((OJ L 157, 7.7.1995. )) and the control system applicable to the Common Fisheries Policy.With regard to the collection of data on fishing vessel casualties and working accidents on board, the Commission would refer the Honourable Member to its answer to Written Question E-272/96 by Mr Pronk ((OJ C 105, 3.4.1997. )).
