12 Central Statistics Office Fishery Statistics Background Notes General This release has been compiled from existing administrative and statistical sources. It brings together into one release the various fishery statistics that are already available. Comparisons between sea landings and external trade statistics should allow for the differences between both systems mentioned below. Allowance should also be made for aquaculture and inland fish production as well as for any stock changes of frozen fish etc. and for trade outside the scope of the External Trade statistics thresholds. Sea landings Fishery statistics are collected by the Sea Fishery Officers of the Department of Communications, Marine and Natural Resources. They are processed by the Sea Fisheries Control Division of the Department. The Sea Fisheries Division are responsible for the transmission of the figures to the EU statistical office, Eurostat, under the terms of Council Regulation No 2104/93. Landings of clams, oysters and salmon have been excluded by the CSO from the figures supplied by the Department. Landings of blue mussels into ports where blue mussel aquaculture farming is located have also been excluded from 1990 onwards. In 1990 the amount of excluded farmed mussels was 13,600 tonnes valued at 3.3 million. Landings by foreign boats into Irish ports are not included in the figures. Demersal fish are found on or near the bottom of the sea. They are often referred to as white fish. Pelagic fish live in the surface waters or middle depths of the sea. Shellfish are of two kinds, crustaceans - prawns, lobsters, crabs etc. and molluscs - mussels, oysters etc. Deepwater or deep sea species for the purpose of catch statistics, are those referred to in Council Regulation (EC) No. 2347/2002. Aquaculture production Bord Iascaigh Mhara conducts an annual survey of finfish and shellfish farms. production and employment are collected. Figures on Inland catches External trade statistics The inland catch estimates are compiled by using declared or reported quantity data and value estimates supplied by the Central Fisheries Board. The methodology was amended in 1994 to supplement reports from registered dealers with indications from inspectors of what was caught but not sold through the dealers. The estimates for exports and imports are taken from the CSO external trade statistics. The basic external trade data are collected and edited by the Office of the Revenue Commissioners and passed to the External Trade Statistics Division of the CSO. The CSO checks the data for consistency and then disseminates the final results. Since the completion of the EU Single Market at the end of 1992, trade statistics with EU member states and trade statistics with non-eu countries are compiled from two separate sources. The EU-wide system, Intrastat, involves a direct survey of the larger traders and an analysis of the regular VAT returns submitted by all traders. Traders not registered for VAT have no obligations under the Intrastat system and their trade is therefore not included in the statistics. The Intrastat figures include estimates for traders who did not make Intrastat returns and for traders below the thresholds who did not provide aggregate inter-eu trade data. Non-EU trade data is still compiled from the normal Customs clearance documentation. Landings of fish by European Union registered vessels are not included in import statistics. If these fish are sold and subsequently exported, they are included in export statistics. 12

13 Central Statistics Office Licences Fishing fleet Census of Industrial Production Consumer Price Index Fishery Statistics The Central Fisheries Board collate the sales figures from returns made to them by the Regional Fishery Boards. The Department of Communications, Marine and Natural Resources compile these figures and are also responsible for maintaining the fishing vessel register. These data are in turn transmitted to the EU statistical office, Eurostat. The figures include vessels used for aquaculture. The figures are taken from the CSO Census of Industrial Local Units. The results cover all industrial local units with three or more persons engaged and relate to the NACE code Processing and preserving of fish and fish products. The Consumer Price Index is compiled by the CSO. It is designed to measure the average change in the level of the prices paid for consumer goods and services by all private households in the country. In addition to the price indices, national average prices are also published for selected items. Technical Notes Tables 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5: Sea fish landings data presented in Tables 1-5 are based on unit level landings data transmitted by the Department of Communications, Marine and Natural Resources in an annual report to the CSO. From 2003 onwards the Department revised their species and class coding structure, to include a deepwater species class. In accordance with this revised structure, some of the data previously published for 2002 under the heading demersal has been re-classified as deepwater for comparative purposes. Table 9: The revisions in Table 9 regarding fishing fleet statistics are due to changes in EU Fleet Policy. As a result of this policy change Ireland has re-measured its fishing fleet and now uses GT (gross tonnage) instead of GRT (Gross Registered Tonnage). In recent years Ireland has also carried out two schemes for the registration of Inshore vessels. These were traditional Inshore vessels which were previously operating outside the fleet. They were registered retrospectively dating back to 1990 in most cases. Composition of EU 15 EU 15 includes the following countries: Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Sweden and United Kingdom. 13
