Calculation of the inadmissibility period where the operator owns more than one fishing vessel
Article 6
1. Where an operator owns or controls more than one fishing vessel, the inadmissibility period of an application by that operator shall be determined separately in relation to each individual fishing vessel, in accordance with Article 3 or Article 4. 2. However, applications for EMFF support by that operator shall also be inadmissible: (a) if applications in relation to more than half of fishing vessels owned or controlled by that operator are inadmissible for EMFF support pursuant to Article 3 and Article 4, or (b) if, in the case of serious infringements pursuant to Article 42(1)(a) of Regulation (EC) No 1005/2008 listed in points 1, 2, and 5 of Annex XXX to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 404/2011, the average number of assigned infringement points per fishing vessel owned or controlled by the operator is 7 or more. 3. By way of derogation from paragraphs 1 and 2, where a serious infringement committed by an operator is not related to any fishing vessel owned or controlled by that operator, all applications for EMFF support by that operator shall be inadmissible.
