Summary
The document argues that a proposed resolution by the PECH Committee to reduce inadmissibility periods for EU fisheries funding is unlawful and disproportionate, as it would allow operators who commit serious offences, such as fishing without a licence, to access funds sooner than the one-year minimum established in the EMFAF Regulation.
Key insights
- The PECH Committee's proposed changes to the Delegated Act are considered unlawful because they attempt to reduce the inadmissibility period for certain serious infringements below the one-year minimum threshold established in Article 11 of Regulation 2021/1139 (EMFAF).
- The Commission's Delegated Act aims to restrict EU funds for operators involved in illegal fishing or serious Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) infringements, such as fishing without a licence or joint operations with illegal vessels, proposing an inadmissibility period of at least 14 months.
- The authors argue that the Delegated Regulation is proportionate because the determination of whether an infringement is 'serious' is already a balancing exercise conducted at the national level, taking into account recurrence, duration, and seriousness.
