Article 15U.K.Conditions for additional allocations

1.The additional allocation referred to in Article 14 shall comply with the following conditions:

(a)the vessel makes use of close circuit television cameras (CCTV) associated to a system of sensors (jointly referred to as "the CCTV system") to record all on board fishing and processing activities;

(b)the additional allocation granted to an individual vessel that participates in trials on fully documented fisheries shall not exceed any of the following limits:

(i)

75 % of the discards of the stock, as estimated by the relevant Member State, produced by the type of vessel to which the individual vessel that has been granted the additional allocation belongs.

(ii)

30 % of the vessel's individual allocation prior to participating in the trials.

(c)all catches by the vessel from the stock subject to the additional allocation, including fish that are under minimum landing size as defined in Annex XII of Council Regulation (EC) No 850/98(1), shall be counted against the individual allocation of the vessel, as resulting from any additional allocation granted under Article 14.

(d)once the individual allocation for any stock subject to the additional allocation has been fully utilised by a vessel, the vessel in question must cease all fishing activity in the relevant TAC area.

(e)in respect of the stocks for which this Article may be used, the Member States may allow transfers of the individual allocation or any part thereof from vessels not participating in trials on fully documented fisheries to vessels participating in those trials provided that it can be demonstrated that discards by the non-participating vessels do not increase.

2.Notwithstanding paragraph 1(b)(i), a Member State may exceptionally grant to a vessel flying its flag an additional allocation exceeding 75 % of the estimated discards of the stock produced by the type of vessel to which the individual vessel that has been granted the additional allocation belongs, provided that:

(a)the rate of stock discards, as estimated for the relevant type of vessel, is less than 10 %;

(b)the inclusion of that type of vessel is important to evaluate the potential of the CCTV system for control purposes;

(c)an overall limit of 75 % of the estimated stock discards produced by all vessels participating in the trials is not exceeded.

3.Prior to granting the additional allocation referred to in Article 14, a Member State shall submit the following information to the Commission:

(a)the list of vessels flying its flag and participating in trials on fully documented fisheries;

(b)the specifications of the remote electronic monitoring equipment installed on board those vessels;

(c)the capacity, type and specification of gears used by those vessels;

(d)the estimated discards for each type of vessel participating in the trials;

(e)the amount of catches of the stock subject to the relevant TAC made in 2013 by the vessels participating in the trials.
