Scientific, Technical and Economic Committee for Fisheries (STECF) – Assessment of balance indicators for key fleet segments and review of national reports on Member States efforts to achieve balance between fleet capacity and fishing opportunities (STECF-21-16)
For each Member State, country chapters are provided and include: (1) an overview of whether, according to the Commission Guidelines, fleet segments can be considered in or out of balance with their fishing opportunities; (2) an assessment on whether the Member State fleet report provides a sound and comprehensive analysis of balance between fleet capacity and fishing opportunity; (3) a comparison of the indicator values, trends and assessment of balance by fleet segment found in the fleet reports with those calculated by the EWG, highlighting any discrepancies and, where possible, identifying the reasons for such discrepancies and (4) an assessment on whether the measures in the new or revised action plans are appropriately targeted, timebound and likely to contribute to redressing the imbalance in the fleet segments concerned. The report also lists the fleet segments that were indicated to be out of balance with their fishing opportunities, together with the fish stocks and fishing areas on which they rely. A list of fleet segments for which information available does not allow to calculate the indicators and conclude on balance is also given in the report.
