Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 251
of the Treaty (1),

In particular, the Commission should be empowered to
adapt the lists of species and statistical fishing regions,
descriptions of those regions, and measures, codes and
definitions applied to fishing activity, fishing gear, vessel
sizes and methods of fishing. Since those measures are of
general scope and are designed to amend non-essential
elements of
they must be adopted in

Community to supply the NAFO Scientific Council with
any available statistical and scientific information requested
by the Scientific Council in the performance of its work.

requires

Timely catch and activity statistics have been identified by
the NAFO Scientific Council as essential to the performance
of its work in evaluating the state of the fish stocks in the
north-west Atlantic.

Several Member States have requested the submission of
data in a different form or through a different medium
from that specified in Annex V (the equivalent of the
Statlant questionnaires).

(5)

The measures necessary for the implementation of this
Regulation should be adopted in accordance with Council

Article 1

Each Member State shall submit to the Commission data on the
catches by vessels registered in, or flying the flag of, that Member
State fishing in the north-west Atlantic, with due regard to

to statistical
1990 on the transmission of data subject
confidentiality to the Statistical Office of
the European
Communities (6).

The nominal catch data shall include all fishery products landed
or transhipped at sea in no matter what form but shall exclude
quantities which, subsequent to capture, are discarded at sea,
consumed on board or used as bait on board. Aquaculture
production shall be excluded. The data shall be recorded as the
live weight equivalent of the landings or transhipments, to the
nearest tonne.

Article 2

1. The data to be submitted shall be of two types:

(a)

the annual nominal catches, expressed in tonnes live weight
equivalent of the landings, of each of the species listed in
Annex I in each of the statistical fishing regions of the
north-west Atlantic listed in Annex II and defined in
Annex III;

(1) Opinion of the European Parliament of 17 June 2008 (not yet
Journal) and Council Decision of

published in the Official

preliminary data should be clearly identified as such.

No submissions shall be required for species/fishing region
combinations for which no catches were recorded in the
reference period of the submission.

Should the Member State concerned not have fished in the
north-west Atlantic in the preceding calendar year, it shall inform
the Commission thereof by 31 May of the following year.

3. The definitions and codes
to be used in submitting
information on fishing activity, fishing gear, method of fishing
and vessel size are given in Annex IV.

With the prior approval of the Commission, Member States may
submit data in a different form or on a different medium.

Three levels of precisions of fishing effort should be provided, where possible.

Category A

Fishing gear

Effort measure

Definitions

Surrounding nets
(purse seines)

Number of sets

Beach seines

Number of sets

Number of times the gear has been set or shot, whether or not a
catch was made. This measure is appropriate when shoal size and
packing is related to stock abundance or sets are made in a random
manner

Number of times the gear has been set or shot, whether or not a
catch was made

Boat seines

Number of hours
fished

Number of times the gear was set or shot times the estimated mean
set or shot duration

Trawls

Number of hours

Number of hours during which the trawl was in the water (midwater
trawl) or on the bottom (bottom trawl), and fishing

Boat dredges

Number of hours
fished

Number of hours during which the dredge was on the bottom and
fishing

Gillnets (set or drift)

Gillnets (fixed)

Traps (uncovered
pound nets)

Covered pots and
fyke nets

Longlines (set or
drift)

Number of effort
units

Number of effort
units

Number of effort
units

Number of effort

Thousands of
hooks

Length of nets expressed in 100-metre units multiplied by the
number of sets made (= accumulated total length in metres of net
used in a given time divided by 100)

Length of net expressed in 100-metre units multiplied by the number
of times the net was cleared

Number of days fished times the number of units hauled

Number of lifts times the number of units (= total number of units
fished in a given time period)

Number of hooks fished in a given time period divided by 1 000

Handlines (pole, troll,
jig, etc.)

Number of line
days

Total number of lines used in a given time period

Harpoons

(Report effort levels B and C only)

Category B

Numbers of days fished: the number of days on which fishing took place. For those fisheries in which searching is a
substantial part of the fishing operation, days in which searching but no fishing took place should be included in ‘days
fished’ data.

Category C

For number of days on ground in addition to days fished and searching also all other days while the vessel was on the
ground should be included.

Per cent of estimated effort (prorated effort)

Since corresponding effort measures may not be available for the total catch, the percentage of the effort that has been
estimated should be indicated. This is calculated from:

(((Total catch) − (Catch for which effort has been recorded)) × 100)/(Total catch)
