Detailed rules for the application of Regulation (EU) No 1236/2010 are laid down in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 433/2012.\n(2)\nIn accordance with Article 12(2) of Regulation (EU) No 1236/2010 Members states are to ensure that the reports and information transmitted to the NEAFC Secretary comply with the data exchange formats and data communication systems determined pursuant to Article 16 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 433/2012.\n(3)\nAt its 2018 Annual Meeting the NEAFC has agreed on a new electronic reporting system for the communication of data between the contracting parties and the NEAFC Secretariat based on the UN/FLUX standard. NEAFC has decided that the European Union would be the first contracting party to NEAFC to implement the new electronic reporting system. Once the Commission informs NEAFC Secretariat that it is ready to start the implementation of the new reporting system and NEAFC has established that the technical preparations to use the UN/FLUX standard are completed, NEAFC will decide on a date as of which the new standard becomes applicable for data exchanges. The new reporting system will first be used between the EU and the NEAFC Secretariat, and other contracting parties will have to implement the system at the latest within two years of its entry into force.\n(4)\nImplementation of the new electronic reporting system requires preparatory work at Commission and Member States level. To avoid undue delays in implementation of the new reporting system, it is therefore necessary to define the date by which the Member States concerned should be in a position to implement the new data exchange formats and data communication systems.\n(5)\nThe Commission will communicate the date for the start of the implementation period of the new electronic reporting system to the Member States once a decision is taken by NEAFC to this effect.\n(6)\nIt is therefore necessary to amend Implementing Regulation (EU) No 433/2012.\n(7)\nThe measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee for Fisheries and Aquaculture,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:",
