1. RULES ON CONFIDENTIALITY IN ANNEX II.B TO THE CEM, AS REFERRED TO IN ARTICLE 28(10) AND ARTICLE 43 OF REGULATION (EU) 2019/833

Rules on Confidentiality

PROVISIONS ON SECURE AND CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT OF ELECTRONIC REPORTS AND MESSAGES TRANSMITTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH ARTICLES 28-29 OF THE CONSERVATION AND ENFORCEMENT MEASURES

(1) Field of application

The provisions set out below shall apply to all electronic reports and messages transmitted and received in accordance with Articles 28-29 of the CEM, hereinafter referred to as reports and messages.

(2) General Provisions

(a) The Executive Secretary and the appropriate authorities of Contracting Parties transmitting and receiving reports and messages shall take all necessary measures to comply with the security and confidentiality provisions set out in sections 3 and 4.

(b) The Executive Secretary informs all Contracting Parties of the measures taken in the Secretariat to comply with these security and confidentiality provisions.

(c) The Executive Secretary takes all the necessary steps to ensure that the requirements pertaining to the deletion of reports and messages handled by the Secretariat are complied with.

(d) Member States shall guarantee the Executive Secretary the right to obtain as appropriate, the rectification of reports and messages or the erasure of reports and messages the processing of which does not comply with the provisions of the CEM.

(e) Notwithstanding the provisions in Article 29.10(b)-(d) of the CEM, the NAFO Commission may instruct the Executive Secretary not to make available the reports and messages received under Article 28 and 29 of the CEM to a Contracting Party where it is established that the Member State in question has not complied with these security and confidentiality provisions.

(3) Provisions on Confidentiality

(a) Reports and messages shall be used only for the purposes stipulated in the CEM. No report or message referred to in section 1 shall be kept in a computer database at the Secretariat unless explicitly provided for in the CEM.

(b) Each inspecting Member State shall make available reports and messages only to their means of inspection and their inspectors assigned to the Scheme of Joint International Inspection and Surveillance. Reports and messages shall be transmitted to the inspection platforms and inspectors not more than 48 hours prior to entry into the Regulatory Area.

(c) The Executive Secretary deletes all the original reports and messages referred to in section 1 from the database at the Secretariat by the end of the first calendar month following the year in which the reports and messages have originated. Thereafter the information related to the catch and movement of the fishing vessels shall only be retained by the Executive Secretary, after measures have been taken to ensure that the identity of the individual vessels can no longer be established.

(d) The Executive Secretary does not make available reports and messages to other parties than those specified explicitly in Article 29.10(b)-(d) of the CEM.

(e) Inspecting Member State may retain and store reports and messages transmitted by the Secretary until 24 hours after the vessels to which the reports and messages pertain have departed from the Regulatory Area without re-entry. Departure is deemed to have been effected six hours after the transmission of the intention to exit from the Regulatory Area.

(4) Provisions on security

(a) Overview

Inspecting Member State, the Commission (or the body designated by the Commission) and the Secretariat shall ensure the secure treatment of reports and messages in their respective electronic data processing facilities, in particular where the processing involves transmission over a network. Member State, the Commission (or the body designated by the Commission), and the Secretariat must implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect reports and messages against accidental or unlawful destruction or accidental loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure or access, and against all inappropriate forms of processing.

The following security issues must be addressed from the outset:

System access control:

The system has to withstand a break-in attempt from unauthorized persons.

Authenticity and data access control:

The system has to be able to limit the access of authorized parties to a predefined set of data only.

Communication security:

It shall be guaranteed that reports and messages are securely communicated.

Data security:

It has to be guaranteed that all reports and messages that enter the system are securely stored for the required time and that they will not be tampered with.

Security procedures:

Security procedures shall be designed addressing access to the system (both hardware and software), system administration and maintenance, backup and general usage of the system.

Having regard to the state of the art and the cost of their implementation, such measures shall ensure a level of security appropriate to the risks represented by the processing of the reports and the messages.

Security measures are described in more detail in the following paragraphs.

(b) System Access Control

For their main computer systems the Member State and the Secretariat shall aim to meet the criteria of a C2-level trusted system, (as described in Section 2.2 of the U.S. Department of Defence Trusted Computer System Evaluation Criteria (TCSEC), DOD 5200.28-STD, December 1985).

The following features are some of the ones provided by a C2-level trusted system:

A stringent password and authentication system. Each user of the system is assigned a unique user identification and associated password. Each time the user logs on to the system he/she has to provide the correct password. Even when successfully logged on the user only has access to those and only those functions and data that he/she is configured to have access to. Only a privileged user has access to all the data.

Physical access to the computer system is controlled.

Auditing; selective recording of events for analysis and detection of security breaches.

Time-based access control; access to the system can be specified in terms of times-of-day and days-of-week that each user is allowed to login to the system.

Terminal access control; specifying for each workstation which users are allowed to access.

(c) Authenticity and Data Access Security

Data exchange protocols for electronic transmission of reports and messages between Member State, the NAFO Commission and the Secretariat shall be duly tested by the Secretariat and approved by the NAFO Commission. Electronic transmission is subject to security procedures laid down in this Annex.

(d) Communication Security

Appropriate encryption protocols duly tested by the Secretariat and approved by the NAFO Commission shall be applied to ensure confidentiality and authenticity. Key management policy shall be in place to support the use of cryptographic techniques. In particular, the integrity of the PKI (public key infrastructure) will be guaranteed by ensuring that digital certificates correctly identify and validate the party submitting the information.

(e) Data Security

Access limitation to the data shall be secured via a flexible user identification and password mechanism. Each user shall be given access only to the data necessary for his task.

(f) Security Procedures

Each Member State, the Commission (and body designated by the Commission) and the Executive Secretary shall nominate a security system administrator. The security system administrator shall review the log files generated by the software, properly maintain the system security, restrict access to the system as deemed needed and act as a liaison with the Secretariat in order to solve security matters.

1. RULES ON PROVISION OF BOARDING LADDER IN ANNEX IV.G TO THE CEM, AS REFERRED TO IN ARTICLE 32(C) OF REGULATION (EU) 2019/833

Construction and Use of Boarding Ladders

(1) A boarding ladder shall be provided which shall be efficient for the purpose of enabling inspectors to embark and disembark safely at-sea. The boarding ladder shall be kept clean and in good order.

(2) The ladder shall be positioned and secured so that:

(a) it is clear of any possible discharges from the vessel;

(b) it is clear of the finer lines and as far as practicable in the midlength of the vessel;

(c) each step rests firmly against the vessel’s side.

(3) The steps of the boarding ladder shall:

(a) be of hardwood or other material of equivalent properties, made in one piece free of knots; the four lowest steps may be made of rubber of sufficient strength and stiffness, or of other suitable material of equivalent characteristics;

(b) have an efficient non-slip surface;

(c) be not less than 480 mm long, 115 mm wide, and 23 mm in thickness, excluding any non-slip device or grooving;

(d) be equally spaced not less than 300 mm or more than 380 mm apart;

(e) be secured in such a manner that they will remain horizontal.

(4) No boarding ladder shall have more than two replacement steps which are secured in position by a method different from that used in the original construction of the ladder and any steps so secured shall be replaced, as soon as reasonably practicable, by steps secured in position by the method used in the original construction of the ladder. When any replacement step is secured to the side ropes of the boarding ladder by means of grooves in the side of the step, such grooves shall be in the longer sides of the steps.

(5) The side ropes of the ladder shall consist of two uncovered manila or equivalent ropes not less than 60 mm in circumference on each side; each rope shall be left uncovered by any other material and be continuous with no joints below the top step; two main ropes, properly secured to the vessel and not less than 65 mm in circumference, and a safety line shall be kept at hand ready for use if required.

(6) Battens made of hardwood, or other material of equivalent properties, in one piece, free of knots and between 1,8 and 2 m long, shall be provided at such intervals as will prevent the boarding ladder form twisting. The lowest batten shall be on the fifth step from the bottom of the ladder and the interval between any batten and the next shall not exceed nine steps.

(7) Means shall be provided to ensure safe and convenient passage for inspectors embarking on or disembarking from the vessel between the head of the boarding ladder or of any accommodation ladder or other appliance provided. Where such passage is by means of a gateway in the rails or bulwark, adequate handholds shall be provided. Where such passage is by means of a bulwark ladder, such ladder shall be securely attached to the bulwark rail or platform and two handhold stanchions shall be fitted at the point of boarding or leaving the vessel not less than 0,70 m or more than 0,80 m apart. Each stanchion shall be rigidly secured to the vessel’s structure at or near its base and also at a higher point, shall be not less than 40 mm in diameter, and shall extend not less than 1,20 m above the top of the bulwark.

(8) Lighting shall be provided at night so that both the boarding ladder overside and also the position where the inspector boards the vessel shall be adequately lit. A lifebuoy equipped with a self-igniting light shall be kept at hand ready for use. A heaving line shall be kept at hand ready for use if required.

(9) Means shall be provided to enable the boarding ladder to be used on either side of the vessel. The inspector in charge may indicate which side he would like the boarding ladder to be positioned.

(10) The rigging of the ladder and the embarkation and disembarkation of an inspector shall be supervised by a responsible officer of the vessel. The responsible officer shall be in radio contact with the bridge.

(11) Where on any vessel constructional features such as rubbing bands would prevent the implementation of any of these provisions, special arrangements shall be made to ensure that inspectors are able to embark and disembark safely.
