3. INSTRUCTIONS CONCERNING THE LANDING/TRANSHIPMENT DECLARATION U.K.

General rule U.K.

On entering port after each voyage, masters of all fishing vessels more than 10 metres in length and flying the flag of, or registered in, a Member State, or their agents, shall submit a landing declaration to the authorities at the place of landing.

In the case of transhipment or landings outside the territory of the Community, the master shall immediately transmit to the State whose flag his vessel is flying or in which it is registered, the information given on the landing or transhipment declaration.

In the case of transhipment the master of the fishing vessel shall enter the quantities on the transhipment declaration. A copy of the transhipment declaration shall be handed to the master of the recipient vessel. The original of the customs document T 2 M completed by the master of the fishing vessel shall also be handed to the master of the recipient vessel.

Information to be provided U.K.

Declaration of the quantities landed or transhipped. Indicate on the declaration for each species but only on the last page used, as follows:

• ICES division/NAFO sub-area and non-member country fishing zone

  Optional entry for those vessels obliged to keep a log-book: indicate the ICES division or NAFO sub-area in which the catches were taken.

• Presentation of the fish

  ‘Presentation’ means the way fish has been processed. Indicate the nature of this processing if any: GUT for gutting, HEAD for heading, FILLET for filleting, etc. Where no processing has taken place, WHOLE for whole fish.

• Measurement unit for landed quantities

  Give the unit of weight used (e.g. basket, box, etc.) for landing fish and the net weight in kilograms live weight of the unit used. This unit may be different from that used in the log-book.

• Total weight by species landed/transhipped

  [F2 [X1 Give the weight or quantities actually landed or transhipped for all species.] ]

  The weight should correspond to the weight of fish as landed, i.e. after any processing on board.

  Conversion coefficients will be applied subsequently by the appropriate authorities in the Member State to calculate the corresponding live weight.
