Article 10 U.K. Measures on European seabass fisheries

1. [F2 Until the end of 2021 it is] prohibited for [F3 United Kingdom] fishing vessels, as well as for any commercial fisheries from shore, to fish for European seabass in ICES divisions 4b and 4c, and in ICES subarea 7. [F4 During that period it is] prohibited to retain, tranship, relocate or land European seabass caught in that area.

2. By way of derogation from paragraph 1, [F5 until the end of January 2021] and from [F6 1st April to the end of December 2021], [F7 United Kingdom] fishing vessels in ICES divisions 4b, 4c, 7d, 7e, 7f and 7h and in waters within 12 nautical miles from baselines under the sovereignty of the United Kingdom in ICES divisions 7a and 7g may fish for European seabass, and retain, tranship, relocate or land European seabass caught in that area with the following gear and within the following limits:

(a) using demersal trawls(1), for unavoidable by-catches not exceeding 520 kilogrammes per two months and 5 % of the weight of the total catches of marine organisms on board caught by that vessel per fishing trip;

(b) using seines(2), for unavoidable by-catches not exceeding 520 kilogrammes per two months and 5 % of the weight of the total catches of marine organisms on board caught by that vessel per fishing trip;

(c) using hooks and lines(3), not exceeding 5,7 tonnes per vessel per year;

(d) using fixed gillnets(4), for unavoidable by-catches not exceeding 1,4 tonnes per vessel per year.

The derogations set out in the first subparagraph F8 ... apply to [F7 United Kingdom] fishing vessels that have recorded catches of European seabass over the period from 1 July 2015 to 30 September 2016: in point (c) with recorded catches using hooks and lines, and in point (d) with recorded catches using fixed gillnets. In the case of a replacement of a [F7 United Kingdom] fishing vessel, [F9 a fisheries administration] may allow the derogation to apply to another fishing vessel provided that the number of [F7 United Kingdom] fishing vessels subject to the derogation and their overall fishing capacity do not increase.

3. The catch limits set out in paragraph 2 [F10 are not] transferable between vessels and, where a monthly limit applies, from one month to another. For [F11 United Kingdom] fishing vessels using more than one gear in a single calendar month, the lowest catch limit set out in paragraph 2 for either gear shall apply.

F12 ...

F13 4. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

5. In recreational fisheries, including from shore, in ICES divisions 4b, 4c, 6a, [F14 7a and 7d to 7j]:

(a) [F15 until the end of February 2021] and [F16 for the whole of December 2021], only catch-and-release fishing with a rod or a handline for European seabass [F17 is permitted]. During those periods, it [F18 is] prohibited to retain, relocate, tranship or land European seabass caught in that area;

(b) from [F19 1st March to the end of November 2021], not more than two specimens of European seabass may be caught and retained per fisherman per day; the minimum size of European seabass [F20 which may be retained is] 42 cm.

Point (b) of the first subparagraph [F21 does] not apply to fixed nets, which may not be used to catch or retain European seabass during the period referred to in that point.
