Publication metadata
The objective of this project is to provide an in-depth analysis of the national systems sanctioning the infringements of the Common Fisheries Policy (CFP), and in particular of the sanctions applied by Member States for infringements detected between 1 January 2015 and 31 December 2019, aiming to support the Commission in the preparation of the report on the implementation of the Control Regulation for the period 2015-2019 it must present to the European Parliament and the Council pursuant to Article 118(2) of Council Regulation EC No. 1224/20091. Accordingly, the study: - describes the enforcement framework of the Member States with a coastline; - assesses the effectiveness, proportionality and dissuasiveness of the sanctioning systems implemented in the Member States; - identifies best practices, as well as opportunities for improvement of the Member States’ sanctioning systems. The project was implemented in three tasks: 1) collecting data on the national enforcement systems for infringements of the rules of the CFP; 2) carrying out an assessment on the national enforcement framework and of the sanctioning practice in the Member States, and 3) comparing enforcement of similar types of infringements in different Member States. The data collection was primarily done with a questionnaire addressed to the Member States’ competent authorities (MSCAs), completed by desk research and interviews. The subsequent assessment analysed both the Member States’ regulatory frameworks, i.e., whether the laws and procedures in place at national level are adequate to enable effectiveness, proportionality and dissuasiveness of sanctions; and the Member States’ performance in terms of national enforcement, i.e., whether the sanctions applied in practice can be considered effective, proportionate and dissuasive.
