Abstract

These Regulations regulate landing and transhipment of plaice caught by Irish sea fishing boats in ICES Divisions VIIf and VIIg with effect from 1 March 2005. "Irish sea-fishing boat" means a boat entered in the Register of Fishing Boats. In the areas specified or elsewhere, an Irish sea-fishing boat may only land or tranship plaice from such boat if the plaice landed or transhipped does not exceed 2 percent by weight of the total catch of all species of fish subject to quotas landed or transhipped on any occasion. The Regulations also define prima facie evidence in respect of alleged offences.
