ANNEX IX

AMENDMENT TO REGULATION (EU) 2022/110

Annex III to Regulation (EU) 2022/110 is amended as follows:

(1)in point (a) (the table relating to trawlers in Alboran Sea, Balearic Islands, Northern Spain and Gulf of Lion (GSAs 1-2-5-6-7)), footnote 2 is replaced by the following:

‘(2)In addition to the above-mentioned maximum allowable fishing effort for trawlers, a Member State may grant to vessels flying its flag an additional allocation of fishing days within an overall 2 % of the fishing effort of that Member State for the fleet segment concerned, provided that:
(a)those vessels use a trawl net with a 45 mm square-mesh codend in order to reduce by at least 25 % catches of the juveniles of hake; or

(b)those vessels use a trawl net with a 50 mm square-mesh codend for deep-water fisheries in order to reduce by at least 25 % catches of blue and red shrimps with a CL of less than 25 mm in geographical subareas 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 and to reduce by at least 25 % catches of giant red shrimps with a CL of less than 35 mm in the geographical subareas 8, 9, 10 and 11; or

(c)those vessels use a regulated highly selective gear, the technical specifications of which result in, according to the scientific study by STECF, at least a reduction of 25 % of catches of juveniles of all demersal species or at least 20 % of catches of spawners of all demersal species compared to 2020; or

(d)the Member State concerned has adopted temporary closure areas in order to reduce by at least 25 % catches of juveniles of all demersal species or by at least 20 % catches of spawners of all demersal species.

The Member State concerned shall notify to the Commission the list of the fishing vessels concerned by such an additional allocation of fishing days, as well as the related number of additional fishing days.

The Member State concerned shall also notify to the Commission for every month the effort deployed to be counted against that additional allocation, by using the specific reporting codes for that allocation (EFF1/MED1_TR1_AA, EFF1/MED1_TR2_AA, EFF1/MED1_TR3_AA, EFF1/MED1_TR4_AA and EFF2/MED1_TR1_AA, EFF2/MED1_TR2_AA, EFF2/MED1_TR3_AA, EFF2/MED1_TR4_AA).

The Member State concerned shall submit to the Commission, by 15 October at the latest, all available information related to the implementation of the measures referred to in points (a), (b), (c) and (d).

The overall 2 % of the fishing effort shall be calculated from the maximum allowed effort allocation of the relevant fleet segment of the Member State concerned, as from 1 January 2022.’;

(2)in point (b) (the table relating to trawlers in Corsica Island, Ligurian Sea, Tyrrhenian Sea and Sardinia Island (GSAs 8-9-10-11)), footnote 3 is replaced by the following:
