Target description
Response systems shall be implemented by the competent authorities following reports of invasive species in port areas and in areas intended for aquaculture.
Knowledge gaps on major introduction routes and vectors are reduced.
By 2020, all ports and class 2 class 1 terminals shall be equipped with an early warning system for timely detection of the presence of invasive non-indigenous species and early warning to competent authorities.
The traceability systems of all imports, translocations, and movements of non-indigenous species into aquaculture facilities, as provided for in Regulation (EC) No 708/2007, as amended, shall be implemented.

Target assessment description
The target has the objective to provide management responses to the presence of invasive species
The target aims at investigating pathways and vectors responsible for the introduction of non indigenous species
This target is considered achieved following the activation of an early warning system through the establishment of a National Focal Point for noxious and non indigenous species.The NFP gather Authorities and experts in the field of bioinvasions
The target is considered achieved following full implementation of Regulation 708/2007 through the institution of a Register of introductions and translocations of non indigenous species in aquaculture according to Art 23
