Scientific, Technical and Economic Committee for Fisheries (STECF). Review of Guidelines for the National Programs and Technical Reports under the Data Collection Framework. Report of the Subgroup on Research Needs (SGECA/SGRN 09-03) Joint Subgroup on Economic Affairs (SGECA) and on Research Needs (SGRN) of the Scientific, Technical and Economic Committee for Fisheries (STECF)

摘要

Articles 6(1) and 7(2) of Council Regulation (EC) No 199/2008 state that the evaluation of both NP proposals and TRs should be carried out by STECF. Therefore, the guidelines and templates should also facilitate SGRN¿s evaluation of Member States¿ compliance with the DCF. SGRN received a mandate to review these guidelines and templates in its July 2009 meeting (SGRN-09-02), and proposed a new structure for both NP proposals and TRs, and a totally revised version of the Standard Tables. The RCMs subsequently provided an in-depth review of the revised tables. The purpose of the SGRN/ECA-09-03 meeting (Ispra, 19-21 October 2009) to review of NP and TR guidelines was to finalise the templates and guidelines, starting from the work done in SGRN in July 2009 and the comments made by the four RCMs (RCM North Sea and Eastern Arctic, RCM North Atlantic, RCM Baltic, RCM Mediterranean and Black Sea).
