The Sea Fishing (Enforcement of Community Quota and Third Country Fishing Measures) (Scotland) Order 2007
This Order, which forms part of the law of Scotland only, makes provision for the enforcement of certain enforceable Community restrictions and other obligations relating to sea fishing by Community vessels and third country vessels set out in Council Regulation (EC) No. 41/2007 (“the Council Regulation”). The Council Regulation fixes total allowable catches and the quotas of Member States for 2007 and lays down certain conditions under which they may be fished. It also authorises fishing by vessels of Norway and the Faroe Islands for specified descriptions of fish in certain specified areas within the fishery limits of Member States in 2007 and imposes requirements concerning fishing quotas and authorised zones, methods of fishing, the holding of licences and observance of licence conditions, the keeping of logbooks, the making of reports and similar matters.
