                    COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC)
      on the submission of data on the landings of fishery

                            JUSTIFICATION
Article 31 of Council Regulation L 3796/81 (1) concerning the
organisation of the market for fishery products establishes the
principal of the flow of information between the Commission and
the Member States for the management of the market. Regulations
3140/82 (2), 3598/83 (3) and 3599/83 (4) contain details of the
data required: they are essentially short-term indicators of the
market situation for specific products. However, for longer-term
planning of the market, global data on the quantity and value of
total landings in the Member States are required. Although such
data are collected by the national authorities they are poorly
harmonised at the Community level and there is no established
procedure for their transmission to the Commission.
The present proposal establishes standards for the statistics and
provides for the data to be transmitted to the Commission.

    Definitions to be used in the submission of data on
                landings of fishery products.
Units
  Height: The weight recorded should be the weight of the
  product as landed.         The data should include all
  quantities sold either by auction or by other means of
  commercialisation.
  The weight should be recorded in tonnes with one place
  of decimals.
  Value:     The value should be recorded in national
  currency and should be the value at first sale excluding
  value-added tax. For products not submitted for formal
  auction an estimate of the value should be made (from,
  where possible, the value of a similar product on the
  auction at that time.)
Destination
  Human consumption: Included here are all products which
  are sold at first sales for human consumption or which
  are landed under contract or other agreement for human
  consumption.       Excluded   are  quantities  originally
  destined for human consumption but which, at the moment
  of first sale, due to market conditions, hygiene
  regulations or similar causes, are withdrawn from the
  market for human consumption.
  Industrial uses:       Included here are all products
  specifically landed for reduction to meal and oil or for
  consumption by animals plus quantities which, although
  originally destined for human consumption, are not sold
  for this purpose at first sale.
Presentation
     Fillets    are strips of flesh cut parallel to the
central bone of the fish and from which fins, main bones
and sometimes belly flap have been removed, presented
without or with skin (then scaled).
     Whole fish refers to ungutted fish.
     CIeaned refers to squids where the arms, head      and
internal organs have been removed from the body.
     Frozen fish are fish that have been subjected       to
freezing in a manner to preserve the inherent qualitty   of
the fish by reducing the average temperature to -18°C    or
lower and which are then kept at a temperature of -18°C  or
lower.

     Fresh. fish, are fish that have not been preserved,
cured, frozen or otherwise treated other than chilled.

ports regardless of the nationality of the vessels making
the landings. The reporting Member State is not required,
under the provisions of this Regulation, to report the
landings of its vessels in ports other than the national
ports.
  National vessels are vessels flying the     flag of  or
  registered in the reporting Member State.

   Effect on Small and Medium-sized Enterprises and Employaient.
Réf. :   Proposal for a Council Regulation on the submission of
          data on the landings in fishery products in Member
          States.
Statistics on the quantities and values of total landings are
already collected by the authorities in all Hember states. The
aim of this regulation is to harmonise the data at Community
level and to establish the procedure for the transmission of
these statistics to the Commission's services. As a result, this
proposed regulation will have no effect whatsoever on small and
medium sized enterprises or on e«ploy«emt.
