1. Before the start of the bluefin tuna fishing campaign, the competent authority of the farm Member State shall assign a unique identifying number (“cage number”) to each cage associated to farms under its jurisdiction, including those cages used to transport the fish to the farm. 2. Cage numbers shall be issued in accordance with a unique numbering system that includes at least the alpha-3 code corresponding to the farm Member State followed by three numbers. Cage numbers shall be permanent and not transferable from one cage to another. 3. The cage numbers shall be stamped or painted on two opposite sides of the ring of the cage and above the water line, in a colour contrasting with the background on which they are painted or stamped and shall be visible and legible at any time for control purposes. The height of the letters and numbers shall be at least 20 cm with a line thickness of at least 4 cm. 4. By way of derogation from paragraph 3, alternative methods to mark the cage number on the cage shall be allowed, provided that they offer the same guarantee of visibility, legibility and inviolability. |
