Division 2 The dominance criteria shall be used to allocate each vessel to a segment based on the number of fishing days used with each gear. If a fishing gear is used by more than the sum of all the others (i.e. a vessel spends more than 50 % of its fishing time using that gear), the vessel shall be allocated to that segment. If not, the vessel shall be allocated to the following fleet segment:

- (a)
‘Vessels using Polyvalent active gears’ if it only uses active gears;
- (b)
‘Vessels using Polyvalent passive gears’ if it only uses passive gears;
- (c)
