ANNEX IIFISHING EFFORT LIMITS

1.Member States shall allocate the right to vessels flying their flag and fishing with trawls, Danish seines or similar gear of a mesh size equal to, or larger than, 90 mm, with gillnets, entangling nets or trammel nets of a mesh size equal to, or larger than, 90 mm, with bottom set lines, longlines except drifting lines, handlines and jigging equipment, to be up to:

  1. (a)

    147 days absent from port in ICES subdivisions 22-24, with the exception of the period from 1 to 30 April when Article 8(1)(a) of Regulation (EC) No 1098/2007 applies; and

  2. (b)

    146 days absent from port in ICES subdivisions 25-28, with the exception of the period from 1 July to 31 August when Article 8(1)(b) of Regulation (EC) No 1098/2007 applies.

2.

The maximum number of days absent from port per year for which a vessel may be present within the two areas referred to in point 1(a) and (b) fishing with the gear specified in point 1 may not exceed the maximum number of days absent from port allocated for one of those two areas.

3.

By way of derogation from points 1 and 2, and where efficient management of fishing opportunities so requires, a Member State may allocate to vessels flying its flag the right to additional days absent from port where an equal amount of days absent from port is withdrawn from other vessels flying its flag that are subject to effort restriction in the same area and where the capacity, in terms of kW, of each of the donor vessels is equal to, or larger than, that of the receiving vessels. The number of receiving vessels may not exceed 15 % of the total number of vessels of the Member State concerned, as indicated in point 1.
