Article 1

Each Member State shall submit to the Commission data on the nominal catches by vessels registered in or flying the flag of that Member State fishing in certain areas other than those of the North Atlantic, with due regard to Council Regulation (Euratom, EEC) No 1588/90 of 11 June 1990 on the transmission of data subject to statistical confidentiality to the Statistical Office of the European Communities ( 5 ) .

The nominal catch data shall include all fishery products landed or transhipped at sea in no matter what form but shall exclude quantities which, subsequent to capture, are discarded at sea, consumed on board or used as bait on board. The data shall be recorded as the live weight equivalent of the landings or transhipments, to the nearest tonne.

Article 2

   The data to be submitted shall be the nominal catches in each of the major fishing areas and subdivisions thereof as listed in Annex I, described in Annex II and illustrated in Annex III. For each of the major fishing areas the species for which data are required are listed in Annex IV.
   The data for each calendar year shall be submitted within six months of the end of the year.
   Where the Member State's vessels under Article 1 have not fished in a major fishing area in the calendar year, the Member State shall inform the Commission to this effect. However, where fishing has occurred in a major fishing area, submissions shall only be required for species/subdivision combinations for which catches were recorded in the annual period of the submission.
   The data for species of minor importance caught by the vessels of a Member State need not be individually identified in the submissions but may be included in an aggregated item provided that the weight of the products does not exceed 5 % of the total annual catch in that major fishing area.
   The Commission may amend the lists of statistical fishing areas, or subdivisions thereof, and species.
Those measures, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Regulation, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 5(2).

Article 3

Except where provisions adopted under the common fisheries policy dictate otherwise, a Member State shall be permitted to use sampling techniques to derive catch data for those parts of the fleet for which the complete coverage of the data would involve the excessive application of administrative procedures. The details of the sampling procedures, together with details of the proportion of the total data derived by such techniques, must be included by the Member State in the report submitted pursuant to Article 6(1).

Article 4

Member States shall fulfil their obligations pursuant to Articles 1 and 2 by submitting the data on magnetic medium, the format of which is given in Annex V.
Member States may submit data in the format detailed in Annex VI.
With the prior approval of the Commission, Member States may submit data in a different form or on a different medium.

Article 5

1. The Commission shall be assisted by the Standing Committee for Agricultural Statistics, set up by Council Decision 72/279/EEC ( 6 ) , hereinafter referred to as ‘the Committee’.

2. Where reference is made to this paragraph, Article 5a(1) to (4) and Article 7 of Decision 1999/468/EC shall apply, having regard to the provisions of Article 8 thereof.

Article 6

   By 14 November 1996 Member States shall submit a detailed report to the Commission describing how the data on catches are derived and specifying the degree of representativeness and reliability of those data. The Commission shall draw up a summary of those reports for discussion within the competent Working Group of the Committee.
   Member States shall inform the Commission of any modifications to the information provided under paragraph 1 within three months of their introduction.
   Methodological reports, data availability and data reliability referred to in paragraph 1 and other relevant issues connected with the application of this Regulation shall be examined once a year within the competent Working Group of the Committee.

Article 7

1. Regulation (EC) No 2597/95 is hereby repealed.

2. References to the repealed Regulation shall be construed as references to this Regulation and shall be read in accordance with the correlation table in Annex VIII.

Article 8

This Regulation shall enter into force on the 20th day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union .

the western marine boundary: a line commencing on the east coast of Africa at 30 o 00′E longitude and running due south to 45 o 00′S latitude,
—
the eastern marine boundary: a rhumb line commencing on the south-east coast of India (Point Calimere) and running in a north-easterly direction to meet a point at 82 o 00′E longitude 11 o 00′N latitude, thence running due east to meridian 85 o 00′E; thence due south to the parallel 3 o 00′N; thence due west to the meridian 80 o 00′E; thence due south to the parallel 45 o 00′S,
—
the southern boundary: a line running along the parallel 45 o 00′S from 30 o 00′E longitude to 80 o 00′E longitude.
The western Indian Ocean is subdivided in the following way:
Red Sea sub-area (Sub-area 51.1)
—
Northern limit: northern entrance of Suez Canal.
—
Southern limit: a rhumb line from the frontier between Ethiopia and the Republic of Djibouti on the coast of Africa, across the mouth of the Red Sea, to the frontier between the former Arab Republic of Yemen and the former People's Democratic Republic of Yemen on the Arabian Peninsula.
Gulf sub-area (Sub-area 51.2)
The mouth of the Gulf is closed by a line commencing at the northern tip of Ra′s Musandam and running due east to the coast of Iran.
Western Arabian Sea sub-area (Sub-area 51.3)
The eastern and southern boundaries are a line from the Iran/Pakistan frontier on the coast of Asia running due south to the parallel 20 o 00′N; thence due east to the meridian 65 o 00′E; thence due south to the parallel 10 o 00′N; thence due west to the coast of Africa; other marine boundaries are the common boundaries with sub-areas 51.1 and 51.2 (see above).
Eastern Arabian Sea, Laccadive and Sri Lanka sub-area (Sub-area 51.4)
The sea boundary is a line commencing on the coast of Asia at the Iran/Pakistan frontier, running due south to the parallel 20 o 00′N; thence due east to the meridian 65 o 00′E; thence due south to the parallel 10 o 00′S; thence due east to the meridian 80 o 00′E; thence due north to the parallel 3 o 00′N; thence due east to the meridian 85 o 00′E; thence due north to parallel 11 o 00′N; thence due west to the meridian 82 o 00′E; thence along a rhumb line in a south-westerly direction to the south-east coast of India.
Somalia, Kenya and Tanzania sub-area (Sub-area 51.5)
A line commencing on the coast of Somalia at 10 o 00′N running due east to the meridian 65 o 00′E; thence due south to the parallel 10 o 00′S; thence due west to the meridian 45 o 00′E; thence due south to the parallel 10 o 28′S; thence due west to the east coast of Africa between Ras Mwambo (to the north) and Mwambo Village (to the south).
Madagascar and Mozambique Channel sub-area (Sub-area 51.6)
A line commencing on the east coast of Africa between Ras Mwambo (to the north) and Mwambo Village (to the south) at 10 o 28′S latitude, running due east to the meridian 45 o 00′E; thence due north to the parallel 10 o 00′S; thence due east to the meridian 55 o 00′E; thence due south to the parallel 30 o 00′S; thence due west to the meridian 40 o 00′E; thence due north to the coast of Mozambique.
Oceanic (western Indian Ocean) sub-area (Sub-area 51.7)
A line commencing at the position 10 o 00′S latitude and 55 o 00′E longitude, running due east to the meridian 80 o 00′E; thence due south to the parallel 45 o 00′S; thence due west to the meridian 40 o 00′E; thence due north to the parallel 30 o 00′S; thence due east to the meridian 55 o 00′E; thence due north to the starting position on the parallel 10 o 00′S.
Mozambique sub-area (Sub-area 51.8)
The sub-area comprises the waters lying north of parallel 45 o 00′S and between the meridians 30 o 00′E and 40 o 00′E. It is further subdivided into two divisions.
Marion-Edward division (Division 51.8.1)
Waters lying between the parallels of 40 o 00′S and 50 o 00′S and the meridians of 30 o 00′E and 40 o 00′E.
Zambesi division (Division 51.8.2)
Waters lying north of the parallel 40 o 00′S and between the meridians 30 o 00′E and 40 o 00′E.
