                                             Examples:
                                          
 In Northeast Atlantic waters (FAO area 27), 
                                                   up to ICES Division and statistical rectangle
                                                 (e.g. IVa 41E7, VIIIb 20E8). ICES statistical rectangles provide a grid covering the area between 36° N and 85° 30′ N and 44° W and 68° 30′ E. Latitudinal rows, with intervals of 30′, are numbered (two-digits) from 01 to 99. Longitudinal columns, with intervals of 1°, are coded according to an alphanumeric system, beginning with A0 using a different letter for each 10° block, to M8, except I.
 In Mediterranean and Black sea waters (FAO area 37), 
                                                   up to GFCM geographical sub-area and statistical rectangle

The resulting net weight per pallet per species and, where appropriate, by presentation shall then be divided by the number of boxes on the pallet.
4. The tare weight per box or block referred to in point 3(a) shall be 1,5 kg. A fisheries administration may use a different tare weight per box or block.

ANNEX XIX
This Annex lays down the methodology for a fisheries administration to establish sampling plans in accordance with Article 60(1) of the Control Regulation.

1. The aim of the sampling plan shall be to ensure accurate weighing of fisheries products on landing.

2. The size of the sample to be weighed shall be determined on the basis of the risk of non compliance with Fisheries Rules for the port/location/region ... where the landing(s) take place.

3. A fisheries administration must establish risk at the following levels ‘very low’, ‘low’, ‘medium’, ‘high’ and ‘very high’.

4. 

— levels of landings at the port/location/region involving all regulated stocks,
— level of previously detected infringements linked to landings at the port/location/region,
— total number of inspections carried out at the port/location/region,
— availability of quota to those vessels landing at the port/location/region,
— use of standardized boxes.

As appropriate:


— fluctuation of market price levels for the landed fisheries products,
— risk of fraud at port/location/region.

5. The sampling shall be representative and at least as efficient as Simple Random Sampling.

50-100 1 3 4 5 6
100-200 2 4 5 6 7
Every additional 100 1 1 2 3 4

7. 

— operators comply with established sampling levels,
— the results of weighing determined from sampling plans are used for the purposes mentioned in Article 60(5) of the Control Regulation,
— a selected number of landings of fisheries products, to be determined by a fisheries administration on the basis of its risk analysis, are weighed in the presence of officials of the competent authorities.

8. Any risk analysis, data assessment, validation procedure, audit procedure, or other documents supporting the establishment, and further amendments, of the sampling plan shall be documented and made available for audits and inspection.

ANNEX XX
This Annex lays down the methodology for a fisheries administration to establish sampling plans for fisheries products landed from fishing vessels permitted to weigh on board in accordance with Article 60(3) of the Control Regulation.

1. The aim of the sampling plans shall be to verify the accuracy of weighing when fisheries products are permitted to be weighed on board.

2. A fisheries administration must ensure that sampling is carried out at the time of landing of the fisheries products from the fishing vessel on which they were weighed.

3. The size of the sample shall be determined on the basis of the risk of non-compliance with Fisheries Rules by those fishing vessels permitted to weigh fisheries products on board.

4. A fisheries administration must  establish risk at the following levels: ‘very low’, ‘low’, ‘medium’, ‘high’ and ‘very high’.

5. 

— levels of landings from fishing vessels permitted to weigh catches of fisheries products on board at a port, or other location, or within a region,
— levels of previously detected infringements associated with fishing vessels permitted to weigh catches of fisheries products on board,
— levels of inspection activity at a port, or other location, or within a region where fisheries products are landed from fishing vessels permitted to weigh on board,
— availability of quota for fishing vessels permitted to weigh fisheries products on board.

As appropriate:
— fluctuation of market price levels for the landed fisheries products,
— risk of fraud at port/location/region.

6. Sampling of landings of fisheries products shall be at least as effective as simple random sampling and proportionate to the level of risk.

7. The sampling plan shall include measures to ensure that the weighing of the sample shall be carried out.

8. 

Number of boxes landed by species Number of boxes to be weighed subject to risk level
Very Low Low Medium High Very High
0-25 1 1 1 1 2

50-100 1 3 4 5 6
100-200 2 4 5 6 7
Every additional 100 1 1 2 3 4

9. When fisheries products from such vessels are weighed before first marketing and the weighing takes place immediately following the landing of the lots of fisheries products, the results of weighing may be used for the purposes of the sampling plan.

10. 

— operators comply with established sampling levels,
— without prejudice to Article 71(2) of this Regulation the results of weighing determined from sampling plans are used for the purposes mentioned in Article 60(5) of the Control Regulation,
— a selected number of landings of fisheries products, to be determined by a fisheries administration on the basis of its risk analysis, are weighed in the presence of officials of the competent authorities.

11. Any risk analysis, data assessment, validation procedure, audit procedure, or other documents supporting the establishment, and further amendments, of the sampling plan shall be documented and made available for audits and inspection.

ANNEX XXI
This Annex lays down the methodology for a fisheries administration to establish the control plans to be applied when they permit fisheries products to be weighed after transport from the place of landing to a destination on the territory of the United Kingdom, in accordance with Article 61(1) of the Control Regulation.

1. The aim of the control plan shall be to minimise the risk of non-compliance with Fisheries Rules, when a fisheries administration permits fisheries products to be weighed after transport from the place of landing to a destination on the territory of the United Kingdom.

2. The size of the sample shall be determined on the basis of the risk of non-compliance with Fisheries Rules associated with the permitted weighing of fisheries products after transport.

3. A fisheries administration must define risk at the following levels ‘very low’, ‘low’, ‘medium’, ‘high’ and ‘very high’.

4. 

— the levels of landings of fisheries products which are weighed after transport from the place of landing,
— levels of previously detected infringements associated with landings of fisheries products weighed after transport from the place of landing,
— known levels of transport controls,
— availability of quota for those fishing vessels making landings which are weighed after transport from the place of landing,
— use of standardized boxes by the vessels which are the provenance of the fisheries products.

As appropriate:
— fluctuation of market price levels for the landed fisheries products,
— risk of fraud at port/location/region.

5. 

— A programme of inspections of fisheries products where they are transported from the places of landing for weighing at other destinations on the territory of the United Kingdom.
— Provisions regarding the availability of transport documents in accordance with Article 68 of the Control Regulation.
— Provisions regarding the verification of details of fisheries products transported with respect to data of the prior notification submitted in accordance with Article 17 of the Control Regulation, by the master of the fishing vessel landing the fisheries products.
— Provisions regarding the integrity and details of seals placed on vehicles or containers used to transport such fisheries products in accordance with Article 109 of this Regulation.
— Provisions for cross checking the fishing logbook and transport document data against the records of weighing at the destination where they are weighed.
— Sample weighing of the fisheries products, in the presence of officials of the competent authorities at the destination where weighing prior to first marketing takes place. Sample sizes shall be proportionate to the assessed levels of risk. Where appropriate, a fisheries administration may incorporate the use of standardized boxes into the sample weighing procedures.

6. 

Number of boxes landed by species Number of boxes to be weighed subject to risk level
Very Low Low Medium High Very High
0-25 1 1 1 1 2

ANNEX XXVIII
All vessels used for fisheries control inspection and enforcement shall carry the inspection pennant or symbol clearly displayed on the sides of the unit used in such a way to be clearly visible. Vessels engaged in these duties shall fly the inspection pennant as to be clearly visible at all times.

The words ‘FISHERY INSPECTION’ may also be affixed on the sides of units.

ANNEX XXIX
1. The provisions of this Annex shall apply to safe and convenient access to fishing vessels which require a climb of 1,5 metres or more.

2. A boarding ladder shall be provided which shall be efficient for the purpose of enabling inspectors to embark and disembark safely at sea. The boarding ladder shall be kept clean and in good order.

3. 

((a)) it is clear of any possible discharges from the fishing vessel;
((b)) it is clear of the finer lines and as far as practicable in the middle length of the fishing vessel;
((c)) each step rests firmly against the fishing vessel’s side.

4. 

((a)) be of hardwood or other material of equivalent properties, made in one piece free of knots; the four lowest steps may be made of rubber of sufficient strength and stiffness, or of other suitable material of equivalent characteristics;
((b)) have an efficient non-slip surface;
((c)) be not less than 480 mm long, 115 mm wide, and 23 mm in thickness, excluding any non-slip device or grooving;
((d)) be equally spaced not less than 300 mm or more than 380 mm apart;
((e)) be secured in such a manner that they will remain horizontal.

5. 
When any replacement step is secured to the side ropes of the boarding ladder by means of grooves in the side of the step, such grooves shall be in the longer sides of the steps.

6. The side ropes of the ladder shall consist of two uncovered manila or equivalent ropes not less than 60 mm in circumference on each side; each rope shall be left uncovered by any other material and be continuous with no joints below the top step; two main ropes, properly secured to the fishing vessel and not loss than 65 mm in circumference, and a safety line shall be kept at hand ready for use if required.

7. Battens made of hardwood, or other material of equivalent properties, in one piece, free of knots and between 1,8 and 2 m long, shall be provided at such intervals as will prevent the boarding ladder form twisting. The lowest batten shall be on the fifth step from the bottom of the ladder and the interval between any batten and the next shall not exceed nine steps.

8. Means shall be provided to ensure safe and convenient passage for inspectors embarking on or disembarking from the vessel between the head of the boarding ladder or of any accommodation ladder or other appliance provided, and the ship’s deck. Where such passage is by means of a gateway in the rails or bulwark, adequate handholds shall be provided.

9. Where such passage is by means of a bulwark ladder, such ladder shall be securely attached to the bulwark rail or platform and two handhold stanchions shall be fitted at the point of boarding or leaving the vessel not less than 0,70 m or more than 0,80 m apart. Each stanchion shall be rigidly secured to the vessel’s structure at or near its base and also at a higher point, shall be not less than 40 mm in diameter, and shall extend not less than 1,20 m above the top of the bulwark.

10. Lighting shall be provided at night so that both the boarding ladder over the side and also the position where the inspector boards the fishing vessel shall be adequately lit. A lifebuoy equipped with a self-igniting light shall be kept at hand ready for use. A heaving line shall be kept at hand ready for use if required.

11. Means shall be provided to enable the boarding ladder to be used on either side of the fishing vessel. The inspector in charge may indicate which side he would like the boarding ladder to be positioned.

12. The rigging of the ladder and the embarkation and disembarkation of an inspector shall be supervised by a responsible officer of the fishing vessel.

13. Where on any fishing vessel constructional features such as rubbing bands would prevent the implementation of any of these provisions, special arrangements shall be made to ensure that inspectors are able to embark and disembark safely.
