Fisheries Control regulations

Regulation 1224/2009 establishing a control

system for ensuring compliance with the

CFP

Regulation 404/2011providing detailed rules

for implementation

Existing Traceability

• Food Safety – one up/one down

• Fish hygiene – establishment number

• Current CMO – origin

• Fisheries Control – catch or harvest

information

What is the traceability requirement ?

• Certain catch data must be ‘available’

throughout the supply chain

Page 7: Traceability and catch information under current … and catch information... · Traceability and catch information under current fisheries ... Traceability and catch information

supporting the UK seafood industry for a sustainable, profitable future

Why?

• Fisheries control measure

• Extends buyers and sellers requirements

Page 8: Traceability and catch information under current … and catch information... · Traceability and catch information under current fisheries ... Traceability and catch information

supporting the UK seafood industry for a sustainable, profitable future

• Applies to fisheries and aquaculture products

that fall under CN03

• Excludes:

– CN1604 and CN1605

– third country imports

– freshwater products

– direct sale from fishing vessel to consumer

Does this apply to everything?

How is this intended to be done ?

• Products must be put into ‘lots’ before first sale

• A ‘lot’ is a quantity of fishery products or aquaculture

products of the same species coming from the same

area and fishing vessel or fishing vessels or fish farm

• ‘Lots’ must be provided with an identification number

• Information associated with a ‘lot’ shall remain available

at all stages of production

How should information associated

with a ‘lot’ remain ‘available’ at all

stages of production?

• Lots can be merged but remain traceable

• By means of labelling or packaging

• By documentation accompanying it

• Electronically

What information is associated with a ‘lot’?

• Lot ID

• Quantity

• Supplier

• Commercial name

• Scientific name

• Catch area

• Production method

• FAO alpha 3 code

• Name of fishing vessel or vessels

• Date of capture (landing)

• Whether previously frozen

Catch Area

• Non quota – FAO area as under under current

CMO

• Quota stocks – area considered for purpose of

classification of a fishing area such as FAO sub-

area, division, sub-division, fishing effort zone

etc. as under buyers and sellers

When do traceability requirements

apply?

• 1 January 2012

• 1 January 2013 electronically for fisheries subject to a

multi-annual plan

• 1 January 2015 electronically for other fishery and

aquaculture products

• Electronic compatibility across Member States

So were from here?

• Fisheries control regulations being amended to

take into account new CMO regulation

• MMO are having to consider enforcement

• Need to update guidance

• Need positive feedback from all sectors
