ANNEX IContent and format of the requests for exclusion
1.
Requests for exclusion shall contain a detailed description of the group of vessels and their activities or technical characteristics leading to cod catches of less than 1,5 % of their total catch as set out in Tables 1, 3 and 5.
2.
If the request concerns a group of vessels that fishes solely with regulated gear the technical attributes of which result in cod catches, including discards, of less than 1,5 % of the total catches of that group, it shall be accompanied by detailed information on the technical attributes of the gear and the available scientific evidence confirming its selectivity.
3.
If the request concerns a group of vessels that fishes in a certain part of a geographical area in which the use of the regulated gear leads to cod catches, including discards, of less than 1,5 % of the total catches of that group, due to the fact that this part of the geographical area is outside the cod distribution area, it shall contain the available evidence showing that the fishing activities of the vessels concerned are restricted to the area selected.
4.
The request shall be accompanied by a description of the monitoring procedures that will be applied to the group of vessels to be excluded from the application of the effort regime in order to gather the information needed for annual reporting. The request shall also refer to the system for controlling of the group of vessels. Detailed information is required where the Member State has to ensure that the group’s activity will be restricted to parts of a geographical area.
5.
Any other relevant information which may allow the STECF to assess whether the group of vessels concerned comply with the condition set out in Article 11(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1342/2008 may be provided by the Member State.
6.
The requests shall be sent to the Commission in Excel or equivalent format.

1.Where discard data per vessel are not available, the request shall be accompanied by information gathered from onboard observer schemes or other sampling programmes. The data submitted shall be relevant to the group of vessels. In order to assess the proportion of cod in the catch during the activity of the group of vessels, Member States shall provide the following information:

2.
The sampling intensity shall follow sampling plans established under the Community Data Collection Framework where the group of vessels is sampled as a métier under that framework. Where the group of vessels is not covered by the Community Data Collection Framework, the sampling strategy shall follow the method developed as part of the national programme established under that framework.
