                                Draft
                     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  regulations or similar causes , are withdrawn from the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 .

      C ) eaned  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 .

Ref . :  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 Member 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 employment .
