Abstract

In providing for the enforcement of Council Regulation (EC) No. 2847/93 establishing a control system applicable to the common fisheries policy, this Order largely re-enacts the provisions of the 1994 Order as well as introducing some new provisions. The Order creates offences in respect of breaches of the provisions referred to in column 1 of the Schedule to this Order and in article 3 of this Order. New provisions: concern the requirement to keep a logbook in respect of amounts of fish of over 50kgs; prescribe the requirement for vessels wishing to land catches into a Member State other than the flag Member State to comply with the requirements of a designated ports scheme (if any) or give four hours advance notification of their intention to land to the competent authorities of the Member State of landing; contain rules in respect of the submission of sales notes, transport declarations and take-over declarations; and extend a number of requirements to third country fishing vessels. For the purpose of enforcing the Community control measures specified in the Schedule, this Order confers on British sea-fishery officers powers to enter premises, to go on board fishing boats, to stop and search vehicles transporting fish, to examine fish, to require the production of documents, to search for and seize documents, to take a boat to the nearest convenient port and to seize fish and fishing gear.
