Article 31 Product labelling and separate stowage

All processed fish harvested in the NAFO Regulatory Area shall be labelled in such a way that each species and product category as referred to in Article 1 of Council Regulation (EC) No 104/2000 of 17 December 1999 on the commonorganisation of the markets in fishery and aquaculture products^f1 is identifiable. It shall also be marked as having been caught in the NAFO Regulatory Area.

All shrimp harvested in Division 3L and all Greenland halibut harvested in Subarea 2 and Divisions 3KLMNO shall be marked as having been caught in these respective zones.

Taking into consideration the legitimate safety and navigational responsibility of the master of the vessel, the following shall apply:

• catch of the same species shall be stowed clearly separate from catches of other species. All catches taken within the NAFO Regulatory Area shall be stowed separately from catches taken outside this area.

• catches may be stowed in more than one part of the hold, but in each part of the hold where they are stowed, they shall be kept clearly separate, by the use of plastic, plywood, netting, etc. from catches of other species.
