7. Time periods covered and schedule for the provision of data
Estimates of annual or seasonal catches should be provided to the Commission from 1950 onwards or, if the fleet began operating after 1950, from the year in which the fleet began operating.
Operational catch and effort data, and size composition data, should be provided for all years, starting with the first year for which the data are available.
For all gear types, except trollers targeting albacore in the Pacific Ocean south of the Equator, estimates of annual catches, the number of vessels active, catch and effort data, and size composition data, covering a calendar year should be provided by April 30 of the year following the calendar year (e.g. data covering calendar year “x” should be provided by 30 April of year “x+1”).
For trollers targeting albacore in the Pacific Ocean south of the Equator, estimates of annual catches, the number of vessels active, catch and effort data, and size composition data, covering a fishing season (July to June) should be provided by April 30 of the year following the year in which the season ends (e.g. data covering the season from July of year “x” to June of year “x+1” should be provided by 30 April of year “x+2”).
Estimates of annual catches, the number of vessels active, catch and effort data, and size composition data should be revised, and the revisions provided to the Commission, as additional data become available.
