Where a Member State has authorised a fishing vessel in accordance with Article 27(2) to use more than one fishing gear or gears belonging to more than one grouping of fishing gears subject to a fishing effort regime during a certain fishing trip in a geographical area subject to that fishing effort regime, the fishing effort deployed during that trip shall be counted simultaneously against the maximum allowable fishing effort available to this Member State and related to each of such gears or groupings of fishing gears and to such ...[+++] geographical area.

2. Without prejudice to special rules, where a fishing vessel carrying on board or, where appropriate, deploying a fishing gear or gears subject to a fishing effort regime or operating in a fishery subject to a fishing effort regime crosses during the same day two or more geographical areas subject to that fishing effort regime, the fishing effort deployed shall be counted against the maximum allowable fishing effort related to such fishing gear or such fishery and to the geographical area in which the largest proportion of time was s ...[+++]pent during that day.

In order to limit fishing effort, measured as the sum of the engine power in kilowatt and the number of days fishing in the area, the Regulation provides for: either a special sole fishing permit in the Bay of Biscay which will be granted to vessels fishing more than 2 000 kg of sole by the Member States, or for a Member State whose quota for sole in this area is less than 10% of the TAC, the level of fishing effort must not exceed ...[+++] the reference level of the fishing effort in 2006.

For Ireland, following technical adjustments, the level of fishing effort expressed in kilowatt/days has been reduced from 17.383.542 kw/days to 10.229.052 kw/days in particular in Ices area VII In Annex I to the Regulation, for scallops in Ices area VII: For Belgium, following technical adjustments, the level of fishing effort expressed in kilowatt/days has been increased from 326.351 kw/days to 354.066 Kw/days. For Ireland, following technical adjustments, the level of fishing ...[+++]effort expressed in kilowatt/days has been reduced from 634.407 kw/days to 525.012 kw/days. In Annex I to the Regulation, for edible crab and spider crab: For Ireland, the level of fishing effort expressed in kilowatt/days has been increased from 397.441 kw/days to 465.000 kw/days in Ices areas V and VI following technical adjustments The annual average fishing effort of the United Kingdom has been increased in Annex I and reduced in Annex II in the same proportions (699.926 kw/days) in order to take into account the transfer of fishing effort from the BSA to Ices area VII.

The "framework" Regulation establishes a biologically sensitive area to the south-west of Ireland to replace the former "Irish Box" (which stretched 50 miles around the Irish coast), a reference period (1998-2002) for drawing up the annual average fishing effort by vessels, a 100-mile protection zone for the outermost regions, a kilowatt-day system to calculate the fleet's fishing effort and a minimum size for vessels covered by the Regulation depending on the area (10 metres for biologically sensitive areas, 15 metres for other areas).

In this context the guidelines for the sensible use of wetlands as agreed by the Parties to the Ramsar Convention [Kushiro, 1993] should also be taken into account; Undertakes to ensure that, when sites are proposed, the NATURA 2000 network is consistent with the need to preserve wetland habitats in accordance with the Birds and Habitats Directives; Considers it necessary to formulate an integrated policy on management of hydrological resources in terms of both quantity and quality within the wetlands and outside them, and draws attention to the possible importance here of the communication on Community water policy which the Commission will be submitting; Recalls the support it gave to the communication on coastal areas in its conclusio ...[+++]ns of 18 December 1995, and takes the view that, as in the case of coastal areas, insufficient consultation between all levels of responsibility is one of the main causes of the current situation of wetlands; Emphasizes the need to take wetlands into account when drawing up the Community's strategy for the conservation and sustainable use of biological diversity which the Council called for in its conclusions of 18 December 1995 concerning the Convention on Biological Diversity; Welcomes the necessary research, education and training efforts being made to ensure the protection of wetlands; Stresses the need for the state of wetlands to be observed and monitored and for information and experience in this field to be exchanged, and the role played by the European Environment Agency in this matter, taking account of existing work and mechanisms in this field, particularly under the Ramsar Convention; Advocates coordination and cooperation with third countries to encourage the wise use of wetlands under existing instruments; Expresses the wish that the Community's concerns regarding the wise use and conservation of wetlands should be taken into account at the next conference of the parties to the Ramsar Convention, which must be ...
