Q5f - Description of programme for GES assessment | The monitoring supports indicators which measure the distance to GES. The monitoring is sufficient to detect the natural variability. |
As reported for Art. 9 and 10, the threshold values for GES are:
The level of pressure of the fishing activity is not exceeding MSY-level, and the reproductive capacity of the fish populations is secured.
Both sub-programmes under this programme are sufficient to produce data on target species populations which are under international regulation. The data, which is collected within the sub-programmes, gives reliable information on population dynamics caused by fishing and natural factors. The program provides information for the descriptor 3 (MSD-criteria 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3), and as for salmon, for the descriptor 1 (MSD criteria 1.2 and 1.3). The program also collects information on fishing pressure. |

|
Fishery is widespread activity impacting primarily target fish stocks. It also affects other fish stocks, sea-birds and marine mammals due to by-catch. In Finnish waters there are no bottom touching fishing gears in use.
Fishery data is collected via EU data collection framework and catch statistics by the fishermen from the whole region. |

Q9c - Monitoring method | Spawning Whitefish, migrating to rivers in September-October, are sampled from catches caught by local fishermen. Various fishing gear are used (e.g. net and fyke) to catch a few hundred individuals per river. The samplings take place 2-3 times during each spawning season. |
Sea trout parr are caught by electro fishing, after which they are tagged and released.

Programme description |
The sub-programme provides information on fisheries in EU countries. Data on the fish stock is collected by means of fishing samples and sonars. The aim is to provide information, inter alia, on scientific analysis and advice in support of the Common Fisheries Policy.
|
The sub-programme monitors catches by commercial fishermen and by-catches of birds and mammals. Monitoring shall be based on periodic catch reports from commercial fishermen to the authorities.
