Abstract

This Order makes provision for the enforcement of certain enforceable Community restrictions and other obligations relating to sea fishing by Community vessels and third country vessels set out in Council Regulation (EC) No. 2848/2000. This Council Regulation fixes total allowable catches and the quotas of Member States for 2001 and lays down certain conditions under which they may be fished ("Community quota measures"). It also authorizes fishing by vessels of Norway and the Faeroe Islands for specified descriptions of fish in certain specified areas within the fishery limits of Member States in 2001 and imposes requirements concerning fishing quotas and authorized zones, methods of fishing, the holding of licences and observance of licence conditions, the keeping of logbooks, the making of reports and similar matters ("Community third country fishing measures"). The Order makes provision for the purposes of Article 8 of and Annex IV, paragraph 2 to the Council Regulation (prohibition of landing of catches of unsorted herring at harbours where adequate sampling systems are not in place) as to the harbours in Scotland at which such catches may be landed (art. 3). The Order confers on British sea-fishery officers powers of enforcement in relation to fishing boats and on land.
