Résumé

The Protocol defines the fishing opportunities of vessels of the European Communities in waters of the Seychelles and financial and technical assistance for the development of Seychelles fisheries (art. 6) pursuant to previous agreement between the Parties. The financial compensation shall be fixed at EUR 2300000 per year. Licences to fish simultaneously in Seychelles waters shall be granted to 47 ocean-going tuna seiners and 32 surface longliners for a period of three years beginning on 18 January 1999. During the period referred under article 1, the European Community shall contribute to fisheries development measures involving scientific and technical programmes in Seychelles. In Annex I are indicated the conditions for the pursuit of fishing activities by Community vessels in Seychelles's waters. To avoid any adverse effect on small-scale fisheries in Seychelles' waters, fishing by Community vessels shall not be authorized in the zones defined in Seychelles regulations nor within three miles around any fish-aggregating device placed by the Seychelles' authorities. Applications for fishing licences shall be forwarded by the Commission of the European Communities, on behalf of the shipowners to the Seychelles Fishing Authority, via its representative for Seychelles. Licences shall be valid for a period of one year renewable. The fee shall be set at EUR 25 per tonne caught within Seychelles' waters. Licences shall be issued following advance payment to Seychelles of a lump sum, per year and for each vessel, of EUR 7500 for tuna seiners, EUR 1375 for surface longliners of more than 150 GRT and EUR 1000 for surface longliners of 150 GRT or less, equivalent to the fees for respectively 300 tonnes, 55 tonnes and 40 tonnes caught within Seychelles' waters per year. Fishing licences for surface longliners shall authorize the fishing of not only tuna but also swordfish, marlin and sailfish. The Community vessels licensed to fish in Seychelles' waters shall complete a form as set out in Appendix 2 and 3 concerning the declaration of catches.
