[F10(a)using demersal trawls (OTT, OTB, PTB, TBB, TBN, TBS and TB), as specified in Annex XI of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 404/2011 laying down detailed rules for the implementation of Council Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 establishing a Community control system for ensuring compliance with the rules of the Common Fisheries Policy (“Annex XI”), for unavoidable by-catches not exceeding [F113.8 tonnes per vessel per calendar year] and 5 % of the weight of the total catches of marine organisms on board caught by that vessel per fishing trip;
(b)using seines (SSC, SDN, SPR, SV, and SX), as specified in Annex XI, for unavoidable by-catches not exceeding [F123.8 tonnes per vessel per calendar year] and 5 % of the weight of the total catches of marine organisms on board caught by that vessel per fishing trip;

(d)using fixed gillnets, only where the vessel has recorded catches of European seabass using fixed gillnets over the period from 1 July 2015 to the end of September 2016, for by-catches not exceeding [F141.6 tonnes per vessel per calendar year].]
F15... In the case of a replacement of a [F9United Kingdom] fishing vessel, [F16a fisheries administration] may allow the derogation to apply to another fishing vessel provided that the number of [F9United Kingdom] fishing vessels subject to the derogation and their overall fishing capacity do not increase.
[F17Where the replacement vessel F18... is 8 metres or under in overall length and has no more than one hull, for the purposes of calculating the fishing capacity of the replacement vessel, and whether it may be subject to the derogation, it may be assumed that the replacement vessel’s gross tonnage and engine capacity is no greater than the vessel it replaced.]
