Fishing under the Moroccan Fisheries Partnership Agreement.
✘
TEXTO:
The new fisheries partnership agreement with Morocco has been in effect since March 2007.
Under Article 18.2 of the Control regulation (Reg. 2847/1993) and the detailed rules for its
implementation (Reg. 500/2001), the Member States are required to supply the Commission with catch
data ‘broken down by third country and stock by reference to the smallest statistical zone defined for the
fishery concerned.’ The CECAF Subdivisions 34.1.1, 34.1.2 and 34.1.3 are the smallest zones defined
for these waters.
Could the Commission please provide data on catches under the current agreement with Morocco for the
period ending 31 December 2007 (or the latest period for which the Commission has received catch
data), specifying what quantities were caught in each of the CECAF subdivisions off the coast of
Morocco and the Western Sahara, i.e. 34.1.1, 34.1.2 and 34.1.3? Please provide the data broken down by
species of fish (including molluscs and crustaceans), by Member State and by type of fishing (Chapter
VI of the Moroccan agreement requires Member States to provide quarterly reports of catches by 'type of
fishing', which presumably means according to the six categories of fishing in the agreement).
If the provisions of the two regulations cited above do not apply to the current Morocco agreement,
could the Commission please explain why not and what legislation applies in their place?
