   of 3 March 2014
   on the establishment and implementation of the Production and Marketing Plans pursuant to Regulation (EU) No 1379/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the common organisation of the markets in fishery and aquaculture products
   (2014/117/EU)
   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 292 thereof,
   Whereas:
   
               (1)
            
            
               Producer organisations are to submit production and marketing plans under Article 28 of Regulation (EU) No 1379/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (1) (the ‘CMO Regulation’) to their competent national authorities to contribute to the achievement of the objectives of the common organisation of the markets in fishery and aquaculture products.
            
         
               (2)
            
            
               Production and marketing plans constitute a mandatory instrument for producer organisations.
            
         
               (3)
            
            
               To foster a homogeneous implementation of production and marketing plans, it is necessary that the Commission provides more detailed recommendations on the structure, format and time limits outlined in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1418/2013 (2) in providing clear and detailed guidance to Member States and producer organisations.
            
         
               (4)
            
            
               To help producer organisations to contribute to the objectives of the common market organisation for fisheries and aquaculture products, the Commission should provide recommendations to producer organisations on how to present their intended strategy to match production and market requirements, in particular in detailing the production programme and marketing strategy to be developed.
            
         
               (5)
            
            
               The Commission should also provide examples of the different measures that producer organisations could implement to illustrate how they could concretely contribute to the different objectives of the producer organisations as set out in Article 7 of Regulation (EU) No 1379/2013 that the production and marketing plans would address.
            
         
               (6)
            
            
               To facilitate the monitoring of the production and marketing plans by producer organisations and to allow the competent national authorities to assess the contribution of the different measures of the production and marketing plans to the objectives of the common market organisation and to enable them to verify the compliance by producer organisations with the obligations related to the implementation of the plans, the use of appropriate indicators should be recommended.
            
         
               (7)
            
            
               To facilitate the estimation by producer organisations and competent national authorities of the financial needs deriving from the implementation of the measures included in the production and marketing plans, the inclusion of a financial schedule in the production and marketing plan should be recommended.
            
         
               (8)
            
            
               To allow competent national authorities to assess the implementation of the production and marketing plans by producer organisations, the Commission should recommend that the annual report submitted by producer organisations includes relevant indicators assessing the implementation of the measures planned and evaluating their contribution to the producer organisations’ objectives.
            
         
               (9)
            
            
               This recommendation will be amended or revised as necessary and, in particular, following the adoption of a future Union legal act establishing the conditions for the financial support for maritime and fisheries policy for the period 2014-2020,
            
         HAS ADOPTED THIS RECOMMENDATION:
   That producer organisations and associations of producer organisations comply with:
   
               (a)
            
            
               the format and structure set out in Part A of this Recommendation for the production and marketing plans referred to in Article 28(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1379/2013 (‘the plans’);
            
         
               (b)

         Where this recommendation refers to producer organisations it is intended to refer also to associations of producer organisations.
   
      PART A
   
   FORMAT AND STRUCTURE OF THE PRODUCTION AND MARKETING PLANS
   Plans submitted to national authorities by fishery and aquaculture producer organisations should include information detailed as follows:
   1.   General information on the producer organisation
   
   
      
         Name
      
   
   The full name of the producer organisation.
   
      
         Type
      
   
   Aquaculture producer organisation or a fishery producer organisation.
   
      
         Identification code
      
   
   The national identification code.
   
      
         Location
      
   
   The place where the producer organisation is officially registered (such as the city or harbour) as well as its area of competence, using the relevant NUTS (nomenclature of territorial units for statistics) unit.
   
      
         Number of members
      
   
   The number of producers officially registered in the producer organisation.
   
      
         Turnover (detailed by species)
      
   
   A table indicating the producer organisation’s overall turnover for the past three years with a further view expressing turnover for individual species.
   The turnover should be calculated either as the average annual value of the marketed production at first sale in the last three years, or as the sum of each producer organisation members’ marketed production at first sale in the same period for newly recognised producer organisations.
   
      
         Volume of catches and harvests (detailed by species)
      
   
   A table detailing for each species the volume and value of catches or harvests in the last three years, expressed in tons and euros per year.
   
      
         Identification of the producer organisation’s main marketed species [ex 2.1]
      
   
   It is recommended to use the table described in the previous subsection for the identification of the main marketed species. The main commercial species should represent the main part of each producer organisation’s production in terms of turnover and volume of catches and farmed species. The rules set out in Article 2 of the Commission Regulation (EC) No 2508/2000 (3) should be used as a reference.
   2.   Production programme and marketing strategy
   
   2.1.   Introduction
   
   The producer organisation should explain the overall coherence between the measures it intends to implement and the objectives of the plan.
   Based on an assessment of the producer organisation’s assets, opportunities, threats and weaknesses, the plans should be introduced by a presentation of the producer organisation’s intended strategy to develop and to match its production with markets requirements, in accordance with the objectives assigned to producer organisations in Articles 3 and 7 of the CMO Regulation.
   That presentation should clearly establish the link between the production programme and the marketing strategy that the producer organisation will implement.

         6.   Expenditures to be considered
   
   6.1.   Financial plan
   
   It is recommended that producer organisations include in their plans a financial plan detailing for each measure they intend to implement, the different costs, expenditures and expected financial resources.
   Within the financial plan, the following two types of activities should be distinguished:
   
               (a)
            
            
               preparing, monitoring and steering activities related to the measures planned (‘project owner activities’); and
            
         
               (b)
            
            
               activities linked to the practical realisation of each specific measure planned (‘project management activities’).
            
         6.2.   Project owner activities
   
   Expenditure for project owner activities should include in particular expenditures for market studies, assessment studies, project design, risk analysis and any feasibility study realised in advance of the implementation of a measure linked to the achievement of one of the objectives of the plan. It should also include expenditures linked to monitoring and control activities carried out by the producer organisation in the course of the implementation of a specific measure.
   The expenditures considered can cover different categories such as labour, service delivery or supplies.
   6.3.   Project management activities
   
   Expenditure project management activities should include in particular expenditures for elements of the measures implemented that are not properly linked to the project-owner activities, such as scientific or technical experimentations, advertising campaigns, purchasing and deployment of new technical devices for increasing selectivity, developing traceability, or fostering sustainable aquaculture practices.
   7.   Implementing schedule
   
   The plans should contain a timetable of the planned measures and related expenses, broken down into yearly instalments for multiannual plans.
   The timetable should indicate for each measure appropriate output and result indicators as recommended in Section 8.
   8.   Indicators
   
   As recommended in Section 7, output and result indicators should be provided for each measure planned to allow the control of their implementation by producer organisations and competent national authorities. These indicators should be used in the annual report provided for in Article 28(5) of the CMO Regulation. Those indicators should seek to assess the achievement of the strategic objectives of the plans in relation to the initial situation described in the introduction of the plan.
   According to their relevance with regard to the different measures planned, the following indicators should be used:
