A fisheries administration must transmit without delay to the NEAFC Secretary any information regarding non-Contracting Party vessels sighted or otherwise identified as engaging in fishing activities in the Convention Area. ...\n2. If a fisheries administration sights a non-Contracting Party vessel it must attempt to inform that vessel without delay that it has been sighted or otherwise identified as engaging in fishing activities in the Convention Area and is consequently presumed, unless its flag state has been accorded the status of cooperating non-Contracting Party by NEAFC, to be undermining the NEAFC conservation and management measures.\n3. In the case of a non-Contracting Party vessel sighted or otherwise identified as engaging in transhipment activities, the presumption of undermining the NEAFC conservation and management measures shall apply to any other non-Contracting Party vessel that has been identified as having engaged in such activities with that vessel.",
