Inspections at sea
1. NEAFC inspectors shall request permission to board and inspect non-Contracting Party fishing vessels sighted or otherwise identified by a Contracting Party as engaging in fishing activities in the Convention Area. If the master consents to the boarding and inspection of the vessel, the inspection shall be documented by the completion of an inspection report as set out in Annex XVIII.
2. NEAFC inspectors shall without delay transmit a copy of the inspection report to the master of the non-Contracting Party fishing vessel, to the Commission and to EFCA. EFCA shall forward the copy promptly to the NEAFC Secretariat. Where the evidence in that report so warrants, a Member State shall take appropriate action in accordance with international law.
3. If the master does not consent to the boarding and inspection of the vessel or does not fulfil any one of the obligations laid down in Article 24, points (b) to (f), the non-Contracting Party fishing vessel shall be presumed to have engaged in IUU fishing activities. The NEAFC inspector shall inform without delay EFCA and the Commission. The Commission shall promptly inform the NEAFC Secretariat.
