ANNEX IIA
FISHING EFFORT FOR VESSELS IN THE CONTEXT OF THE MANAGEMENT OF CERTAIN STOCKS IN ICES DIVISIONS IIIa, VIa, VIIa, VIId, ICES SUBAREA IV AND EU WATERS OF ICES DIVISIONS IIa AND Vb
1. Scope
1.1. This Annex shall apply to EU vessels carrying on board or deploying any of the gears referred to in point 1 of Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1342/2008 and present in any of the geographical areas referred to in point 2 of that Annex.
1.2. This Annex shall not apply to vessels of less than 10 metres’ length overall. These vessels shall not be required to carry special fishing permits issued in accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1627/94. Member States concerned shall assess the fishing effort of those vessels by effort groups to which they belong, using appropriate sampling methods. During 2011, the Commission shall seek scientific advice for evaluating the effort deployment of those vessels, with a view to their future inclusion into the effort regime.
2. Regulated gears and geographical areas
For the purposes of this Annex, the regulated gears referred to in point 1 of Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1342/2008 and geographical areas referred to in point 2 of that Annex shall apply.
3. Maximum allowable fishing effort
3.1. The maximum allowable effort referred to in Article 12(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1342/2008 and in Article 9(2) of Regulation (EC) No 676/2007 for the 2011 management period, from 1 February 2011 to 31 January 2012, for each of the effort groups of each Member State is set out in Appendix 1 to this Annex.
3.2. The maximum levels of annual fishing effort set in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1954/2003 (31) shall not affect the maximum allowable fishing effort set in this Annex.
4. Member States’ obligations
4.1. Member States shall manage the maximum allowable effort in accordance with the conditions laid down in Article 9 of Regulation (EC) No 676/2007, Article 4 and Articles 13 to 17 of Regulation (EC) No 1342/2008 and Articles 26 to 35 of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009.
4.2. Article 28 of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 shall apply to vessels falling under the scope of this Annex. The geographical area referred to in that Article shall be understood, for the purpose of cod management, as each of the geographical areas referred to in point 2 of this Annex and, for the purpose of sole and plaice management, as ICES subarea IV.
5. Allocation of fishing effort
5.1. If a Member State deems so appropriate in order to reinforce the sustainable implementation of this effort regime, it shall not permit fishing with a regulated gear in any of the geographical areas to which this Annex applies by any of its vessels which has no record of such fishing activity, unless it ensures that equivalent capacity, measured in kilowatts, is prevented from fishing in the regulated area.
5.2. A Member State may establish management periods for allocating all or parts of the maximum allowable effort to individual vessels or groups of vessels. In such case, the number of days or hours for which a vessel may be present within the area during a management period shall be fixed at the discretion of the Member State concerned. During any such management periods, the Member State may reallocate effort between individual vessels or groups of vessels.
5.3. If a Member State authorises vessels to be present within an area by hours, it shall continue measuring the consumption of days in accordance with the conditions referred to in point 4 of this Annex. Upon request by the Commission, the Member State shall demonstrate its precautionary measures taken to avoid an excessive consumption of effort within the area due to a vessel terminating presences in the area before the end of a 24-hour period.
6. Communication of relevant data
6.1. Without prejudice to Articles 33 and 34 of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009, Member States shall transmit to the Commission, on its request, the data on fishing effort deployed by their fishing vessels in the previous month and the months before, using the reporting format set out in Appendix 2.
6.2. The data shall be sent to the appropriate electronic mailbox address, which the Commission shall communicate to the Member States. When a data transfer to the Fisheries Data Exchange System (or any future data system decided by the Commission) will become operational, the Member State shall transmit the data to the system before the fifteenth of each month, referring to the effort deployed up to the end of the previous month. The Commission shall notify Member States the date at which the system shall be used for transmission at least two months in advance of the first due date. The first fishing effort declaration that will be sent to the system shall include the effort deployed since 1 February 2011. Member States shall transmit to the Commission, on its request, the data on fishing effort deployed by their fishing vessels during the month of January 2011.

3.1.A Member State shall not authorise fishing with a regulated gear in the area by any of its vessels which have no record of such fishing activity in the years 2002 to 2010 in the area, excluding the record of fishing activities as a result of transfer of days between fishing vessels, unless it ensures that equivalent capacity, measured in kilowatts, is prevented from fishing in the area.
3.2.A vessel flying the flag of a Member State having no quotas in the area shall not be authorised to fish in the area with a regulated gear, unless the vessel is allocated a quota after a transfer as permitted in accordance with Article 20(5) of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 and is allocated days at sea in accordance with point 10 or 11 of this Annex.
4.1.Member States shall manage the maximum allowable effort in accordance with the conditions laid down in Article 8 of Regulation (EC) No 2166/2005 and Articles 26 to 35 of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009.
4.2.Without prejudice to Article 29 of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009, each Member State shall ensure that, when carrying on board any regulated gear, EU vessels flying its flag shall be present within the area for no more than the number of days specified in point 5 of this Annex.
4.3.Article 28 of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 shall apply to vessels falling under the scope of this Annex. The geographical area referred to in that Article shall be understood as the area defined in point 2 of this Annex.
NUMBER OF DAYS PRESENT WITHIN THE AREA ALLOCATED TO EU VESSELS
5.1.During the 2011 management period, the maximum number of days at sea for which a Member State may authorise a vessel flying its flag to be present within the area having carried on board any regulated gear is shown in Table I.
5.2.For the purposes of fixing the maximum number of days at sea that an EU vessel may be authorised by its flag Member State to be present within the area, the following special conditions shall apply in accordance with Table I:
(a) the total landings of hake in the year 2008 or 2009 made by the vessel shall represent less than 5 tonnes or less than 3 % of the total landings in live weight; and
(b) the total landings of Norway lobster in the year 2008 or 2009 made by the vessel shall represent less than 2,5 tonnes according to the landings in live weight.
5.3.The special conditions referred to in point 5.2. might be transferred from one vessel to one or more other vessels which replace that vessel in the fleet, provided that the replacing vessel uses similar gear and does not have in any year of its operation a record of landings of hake and Norway lobster higher than the weights specified in point 5.2.
5.4.A Member State may manage its fishing effort allocations in accordance with a kilowatt days system. By that system it may authorise any vessel concerned for any regulated gear and special conditions as set out in Table I to be present within the area for a maximum number of days which is different from that set out in that Table, provided that the overall amount of kilowatt days corresponding to the regulated gear and to the special conditions referred to in point 5.2. is respected.
This overall amount of kilowatt days shall be the sum of all individual fishing efforts allocated to the vessels flying the flag of that Member State and qualified for the regulated gear and, where applicable, the special conditions. Such individual fishing efforts shall be calculated in kilowatt days by multiplying the engine power of each vessel by the number of days at sea it would benefit from, according to Table I, if this point were not applied. For as long as the number of days is unlimited according to Table I, the relevant number of days the vessel would benefit from is 360.
5.5.A Member State wishing to benefit from the system referred to in point 5.4. shall submit a request to the Commission with reports in electronic format containing for the gear grouping and special conditions as laid down in Table I the details of the calculation based on:
— list of vessels authorised to fish by indicating their EU fishing fleet register number (CFR) and their engine power,
— track records of 2008 and 2009 for such vessels reflecting the catch composition defined in special conditions referred to in point 5.2.(a) or (b), if these vessels are qualified for such special conditions,
— the number of days at sea for which each vessel would have initially been authorised to fish according to Table I and the number of days at sea which each vessel would benefit from in application of point 5.4.
On the basis of that description, the Commission may authorise that Member State to benefit from the system referred to in point 5.4.
6.1.A Member State may divide the days present within the area given in Table I into management periods of durations of one or more calendar months.
6.2.The number of days or hours for which a vessel may be present within the area during a management period shall be fixed by the Member State concerned.
Where a Member State authorises vessels to be present within the area by hours, the Member State shall continue measuring the consumption of days as specified in point 4.1. Upon request by the Commission, the Member State shall demonstrate its precautionary measures taken to avoid an excessive consumption of days within the area due to a vessel terminating presences in the area before the end of a 24-hour period.
7.1.An additional number of days at sea on which a vessel may be authorised by its flag Member State to be present within the area when carrying on board any regulated gear may be allocated to Member States by the Commission on the basis of permanent cessations of fishing activities that have taken place between 1 February 2010 and 31 January 2011 either in accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 2792/1999 (32), Article 23 of Regulation (EC) No 1198/2006 (33) or resulting from other circumstances duly motivated by Member States. Any vessels for which it can be demonstrated that they have been definitively withdrawn from the area may also be considered.
The effort expended in 2003 measured in kilowatt days of the withdrawn vessels using the gears in question shall be divided by the effort expended by all vessels using those gears during 2003. The additional number of days at sea shall be then calculated by multiplying the ratio so obtained by the number of days that would have been allocated according to Table I. Any part of a day resulting from this calculation shall be rounded to the nearest whole day.
This point shall not apply where a vessel has been replaced in accordance with point 3 or 5.3. of this Annex, or when the withdrawal has already been used in previous years to obtain additional days at sea.
7.2.Member States wishing to benefit from the allocations referred to in point 7.1. shall submit a request to the Commission with reports in electronic format containing, for the gear grouping and special conditions as laid down in Table I, the details of the calculation based on:
— lists of withdrawn vessels with their EU fishing fleet register number (CFR) and their engine power,
— the fishing activity deployed by such vessels in 2003 calculated in days at sea according to the grouping of fishing gears and, if necessary, special conditions.
7.3.On the basis of such a request the Commission may amend the number of days defined in point 5.1. for that Member State in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 30(2) of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002.
7.4.During the 2011 management period, a Member State may re-allocate those additional numbers of days at sea to all or part of the vessels remaining in fleet and qualified for the regulated gears. Additional days stemming from a withdrawn vessel that benefited from a special condition referred to in point 5.2.(a) or (b) may not be allocated to a vessel remaining active that does not benefit from a special condition.
7.5.Any additional number of days resulting from a permanent cessation of fishing activities allocated by the Commission for the 2010 management period shall be included in the maximum number of days per Member State shown in Table I and shall be allocated to the gear groupings in Table I and shall be subject to the adjustment in days at sea ceilings resulting from this Regulation for the 2011 management period.
7.6.By way of derogation from points 7.1., 7.2. and 7.3., the Commission may exceptionally grant a Member State an allocation of additional days during the 2011 management period on the basis of permanent cessation of fishing activities that have taken place from 1 February 2004 to 31 January 2010 and which have not been the subject of a prior request for additional days.
8.1.Three additional days on which a vessel may be present within the area when carrying onboard any regulated gear may be allocated to Member States by the Commission on the basis of an enhanced programme of scientific observer coverage in partnership between scientists and the fishing industry. Such a programme shall focus in particular on levels of discarding and on catch composition and go beyond the requirements on data collection, as laid down in Council Regulation (EC) No 199/2008 of 25 February 2008 concerning the establishment of a Community framework for the collection, management and use of data in the fisheries sector and support for scientific advice regarding the Common Fisheries Policy (34) and its implementing rules for national programmes.
Scientific observers shall be independent from the owner, the master of the vessel and any crew member.
8.2.Member States wishing to benefit from the allocations referred to in point 8.1. shall submit a description of their enhanced scientific observer coverage programme to the Commission for approval.
8.3.On the basis of this description, and after consultation with STECF, the Commission may amend the number of days defined in point 5.1. for that Member State and for the vessels, the area and gear concerned by the enhanced programme of scientific observers in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 30(2) of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002.
8.4.If an enhanced scientific observer coverage programme submitted by a Member State has been approved by the Commission in the past and the Member State wishes to continue its application without changes, the Member State shall inform the Commission of the continuation of that programme four weeks before the beginning of the period for which the programme applies.
9.1.If a vessel has received an unlimited number of days resulting from compliance with the special conditions, the vessel’s landings in the 2011 management period shall not exceed 5 tonnes or 3 % of the total landings in live weight of hake and 2,5 tonnes in live weight of Norway lobster.
9.2.When either of these conditions is not met by a vessel, that vessel shall with immediate effect no longer be entitled to the allocation of days corresponding to the given special condition.
| Special condition | Regulated gear | Maximum number of days | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bottom trawls, Danish seines and similar trawls of mesh size ≥ 32 mm, gill-nets of mesh size ≥ 60 mm and bottom longlines | ES | 158 | |
| FR | 142 | ||
| PT | 172 | ||
| 5.2.(a) and 5.2.(b) | Bottom trawls, Danish seines and similar trawls of mesh size ≥ 32 mm, gill-nets of mesh size ≥ 60 mm and bottom longlines | Unlimited |
EXCHANGES OF FISHING EFFORT ALLOCATIONS
10.1.A Member State may permit any fishing vessel flying its flag to transfer days present within the area for which it has been authorised to another vessel flying its flag within the area, provided that the product of the days received by a vessel multiplied by its engine power in kilowatts (kilowatt days) is equal to or less than the product of the days transferred by the donor vessel and the engine power in kilowatts of that vessel. The engine power in kilowatts of the vessels shall be that recorded for each vessel in the EU fishing fleet register.
10.2.The total number of days present within the area transferred under point 10.1. multiplied by the engine power in kilowatts of the donor vessel shall not be higher than the donor vessel's average annual days track record in the area as verified by the fishing logbook in the years 2008 and 2009 multiplied by the engine power in kilowatts of that vessel.
10.3.The transfer of days as described in point 10.1. shall be permitted only between vessels operating with any regulated gear and during the same management period.
10.4.Transfer of days is only permitted for vessels benefiting from an allocation of fishing days without special conditions.
10.5.On request from the Commission, Member States shall provide information on the transfers that have taken place. Formats of spreadsheet for the collection and transmission of information referred to in this point may be adopted in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 30(2) of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002.
Member States may permit transfer of days present within the area for the same management period and within the area between any fishing vessels flying their flags provided that points 3.1., 3.2., and 10 apply mutatis mutandis. Where Member States decide to authorise such a transfer, they shall notify the Commission, before the transfer takes place, the details of the transfer, including the number of days, the fishing effort and, where applicable, the fishing quotas relating thereto.
REPORTING OBLIGATIONS
Member States, on the basis of information used for the management of fishing days present within the area as set out in this Annex, shall collect on a quarterly basis the information about total fishing effort deployed within the area for towed gears and static gears, effort deployed by vessels using different types of gear in the area, and the engine power of those vessels in kW.
Upon request from the Commission, Member States shall make available to the Commission a spreadsheet with the data referred to in point 12 in the format specified in Tables II and III by sending it to the appropriate electronic mailbox address, which shall be communicated to the Member States by the Commission. Member States shall, upon the Commission's request, send to the Commission detailed information on effort allocated and consumed covering all or parts of the 2010 and 2011 management periods, using the data format specified in Tables IV and V.

GENERAL PROVISIONS
1.1.This Annex shall apply to EU vessels of 10 metres’ length overall or more carrying on board or deploying any of the gears referred to in point 2, and present in ICES division VIIe. For the purposes of this Annex, a reference to the 2011 management period means the period from 1 February 2011 to 31 January 2012.
1.2.Vessels fishing with static nets with mesh size equal to or larger than 120 mm and with track records of less than 300 kg live weight of sole according to the fishing logbook in 2004 shall be exempt from this Annex on condition that:
(a) such vessels catch less than 300 kg live weight of sole during the 2011 management period;
(b) such vessels do not tranship any fish at sea to another vessel; and
(c) each Member State concerned make a report to the Commission by 31 July 2011 and 31 January 2012 on these vessels’ track records for sole in 2004 and catches of sole in 2011.
When either of these conditions is not met, the vessels concerned shall with immediate effect cease to be exempt from this Annex.
For the purposes of this Annex, the following groupings of fishing gears shall apply:
(a) beam trawls of mesh size equal to or greater than 80 mm;
(b) static nets including gill-nets, trammel-nets and tangle-nets with mesh size equal to or less than 220 mm.
3.1.Member States shall manage the maximum allowable effort in accordance with Articles 26 to 35 of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009.
3.2.Article 28 of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 shall apply to vessels falling under the scope of this Annex. The geographical area referred to in that Article shall be understood as the ICES division VIIe.
IMPLEMENTATION OF FISHING EFFORT LIMITATIONS
4.1.Vessels using gear types identified in point 2 and fishing in areas defined in point 1 shall hold a special fishing permit issued in accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1627/94.
4.2.A Member State shall not permit fishing with a gear belonging to a grouping of fishing gears referred to in point 2 in the area by any of its vessels which have no record of such fishing activity in the years 2002 to 2010 in that area unless it ensures that equivalent capacity, measured in kilowatts, is prevented from fishing in the regulated area.
4.3.However, a vessel with a track record of using a gear belonging to a grouping of fishing gears referred to in point 2 may be authorised to use a different fishing gear, provided that the number of days allocated to this latter gear is greater than or equal to the number of days allocated to the first gear.
4.4.A vessel flying the flag of a Member State having no quotas in the area defined in point 1 shall not be permitted to fish in that area with a gear belonging to a grouping of fishing gear referred to in point 2, unless the vessel is allocated a quota after a transfer as permitted in accordance with the Article 20(5) of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 and is allocated days at sea in accordance with point 10 or 11 of this Annex.
Each Member State shall ensure that, when carrying on board any of the groupings of fishing gears referred to in point 2, fishing vessels flying its flag and registered in the Union shall be present within the area for no more than the number of days set out in point 6.
NUMBER OF DAYS PRESENT WITHIN THE AREA ALLOCATED TO EU VESSELS
6.1.During the 2011 management period, the maximum number of days at sea for which a Member State may authorise a vessel flying its flag to be present within the area having carried on board and used any one of the fishing gears referred to in point 2 is shown in Table I.
6.2.During the 2011 management period, a Member State may manage its fishing effort allocation according to a kilowatt days system. By that system it may authorise any vessel concerned to be present within the area for a maximum number of days which is different from that set out in Table I for any one of the groupings of fishing gears laid down in that Table, provided that the overall amount of kilowatt days corresponding to such a grouping is respected.
For a specific grouping of fishing gears, the overall amount of kilowatt days shall be the sum of all individual fishing efforts allocated to the vessels flying the flag of the Member State concerned and qualified for that specific grouping. Such individual fishing efforts shall be calculated in kilowatt days by multiplying the engine power of each vessel by the number of days at sea it would benefit from, according to Table I, if this point were not applied.
6.3.A Member State wishing to benefit from the system referred to in point 6.2. shall submit a request to the Commission with reports in electronic format containing for each grouping of fishing gears the details of the calculation based on:
— list of vessels authorised to fish by indicating their EU fishing fleet register number (CFR) and their engine power,
— the number of days at sea for which each vessel would have initially been authorised to fish according to Table I and the number of days at sea which each vessel would benefit from in application of point 6.2.
On the basis of that description, the Commission may authorise that Member State to benefit from the system referred to in point 6.2.
7.1.A Member State may divide the days present within the area given in Table I into management periods of durations of one or more calendar months.
7.2.The number of days or hours for which a vessel may be present within the area during a management period shall be fixed at the discretion of the Member State concerned.
In case that a Member State authorises vessels to be present within the area by hours, the Member State shall continue measuring the consumption of days as specified in point 3. Upon request by the Commission, the Member State shall demonstrate its precautionary measures taken to avoid an excessive consumption of days within the area due to a vessel terminating presences in the area that do not coincide with the end of a 24-hours period.
8.1.An additional number of days at sea on which a vessel may be authorised by its flag Member State to be present within the geographical area when carrying on board any of the gears referred to in point 2 may be allocated to Member States by the Commission on the basis of permanent cessations of fishing activities that have taken place since 1 January 2004 either in accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 2792/1999 or Article 23 of Regulation (EC) No 1198/2006 or Regulation (EC) No 744/2008 (35), or resulting from other circumstances duly motivated by Member States.
The effort expended in 2003 measured in kilowatt days of the withdrawn vessels using the gear in question shall be divided by the effort expended by all vessels using that gear during 2003. The additional number of days at sea shall be then calculated by multiplying the ratio so obtained by the number of days that would have been allocated according to Table I. Any part of a day resulting from this calculation shall be rounded to the nearest whole day.
This point shall not apply where a vessel has been replaced in accordance with point 4.2. or when the withdrawal has already been used in previous years to obtain additional days at sea.
8.2.Member States wishing to benefit from the allocations referred to in point 8.1. shall submit a request to the Commission with reports in electronic format containing for each grouping of fishing gears the details of the calculation based on:
— lists of withdrawn vessels with their EU fishing fleet register number (CFR) and their engine power,
— the fishing activity deployed by such vessels in 2003 calculated in days at sea by concerned grouping of fishing gears.
8.3.On the basis of such a request the Commission may amend the number of days defined in point 6.2. for that Member State in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 30(2) of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002.
8.4.During the 2011 management period, a Member State may re-allocate those additional numbers of days at sea to all or parts of the vessels remaining in fleet and qualified for the relevant grouping of fishing gears.
8.5.A Member State may not re-allocate in the 2011 management period any additional number of days resulting from a permanent cessation of activity previously allocated by the Commission, unless the Commission has taken a decision that reassesses those additional numbers of days on the basis of the current gear groupings and limitations in days at sea. Upon the Member State's request to reassess the number of days, the Member State is provisionally authorised to reallocate 50 % of the additional number of days, until the Commission takes its decision.
9.1.Three additional days on which a vessel may be present within the area when carrying onboard any of the groupings of fishing gear referred to in point 2 may be allocated between 1 February 2011 and 31 January 2012 to Member States by the Commission on the basis of an enhanced programme of scientific observer coverage in partnership between scientists and the fishing industry. Such a programme shall focus in particular on levels of discarding and on catch composition and go beyond the requirements on data collection, as laid down in Regulation (EC) No 199/2008 and Regulation (EC) No 665/2008 (36) for national programmes.
Observers shall be independent from the owner, the master of the fishing vessel and any crew member.
9.2.Member States wishing to benefit from the allocations referred to in point 9.1. shall submit a description of their enhanced scientific observer coverage programme to the Commission for approval.
9.3.On the basis of this description, and after consultation with STECF, the Commission may amend the number of days defined in point 6.1. for that Member State and for the vessels, the area and gear concerned by the enhanced programme of observers in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 30(2) of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002.
9.4.If an enhanced scientific observer coverage programme submitted by a Member State has been approved by the Commission in the past and the Member State wishes to continue its application without changes, the Member State shall inform the Commission of the continuation of that programme four weeks before the beginning of the period for which the programme applies.
| Gear point 2 | Denomination Only the gear groupings as defined in point 2 are used | Western Channel |
|---|---|---|
| 2(a) | Beam trawls of mesh size ≥ 80 mm | 164 |
| 2(b) | Static nets with mesh size ≤ 220 mm | 164 |
EXCHANGES OF FISHING EFFORT ALLOCATIONS
10.1.A Member State may permit any of its fishing vessels flying its flag to transfer days present within the area for which it has been authorised to another of its vessels flying its flag within the area provided that the product of the days received by a vessel and its engine power in kilowatts (kilowatt days) is equal to or less than the product of the days transferred by the donor vessel and the engine power in kilowatts of that vessel. The engine power in kilowatts of the vessels shall be that recorded for each vessel in the EU fishing fleet register.
10.2.The total number of days present within the area, multiplied by the engine power in kilowatts of the donor vessel, shall not be higher than the donor vessel's average annual days track record in the area as verified by the fishing logbook in the years 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005 multiplied by the engine power in kilowatts of that vessel.
10.3.The transfer of days as described in point 10.1. shall be permitted only between vessels operating within the same gear grouping referred to in point 2 and during the same management period.
10.4.On request from the Commission, Member States shall provide reports on the transfers that have taken place. A detailed format of spreadsheet for making these reports available to the Commission may be adopted in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 30(2) of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002.
Member States may permit transfer of days present within the area for the same management period and within the area between any fishing vessels flying their flags provided that points 4.2., 4.4., 6 and 10 apply mutatis mutandis. Where Member States decide to authorise such a transfer, as a preliminary they shall notify the Commission before the transfer takes place, the details of the transfer, including the number of days transferred, the fishing effort and, where applicable, the fishing quotas relating thereto, as agreed between them.
REPORTING OBLIGATIONS
Member States, on the basis of information used for the management of fishing days present within the area as set out in this Annex, shall collect for each annual quarter the information about total fishing effort deployed within the area for towed gears and static gears and effort deployed by vessels using different types of gear in the area concerned by this Annex.
Upon request from the Commission, Member States shall make available to the Commission a spreadsheet with the data referred to in point 12 in the format specified in Tables II and III by sending it to the appropriate electronic mailbox address, which shall be communicated to the Member States by the Commission. Member States shall, upon the Commission's request, send to the Commission detailed information on effort allocated and consumed covering all or parts of the 2010 and 2011 management periods, using the data format specified in Tables IV and V.
