2.1. Data description

Main characteristics

2.1.1 Describe shortly the main characteristics of the statistics

They are required to provide data on total quantities and unit values of the fishery products landed in their territory by EU and EEA EFTA vessels.

Additional comments on data description
2.2. Classification system

Data are broken down by:
1) the species of aquatic organisms identified using the 3-alpha codes as defined by the FAO (ASFIS List of Species for Fishery Statistics Purposes);
2) the flag state of the fishing vessels carrying out landings (as per the codes set out in Annex II to the Landings Regulation);
3) the ‘presentation’ of the products i.e. processed state of the fisheries product or part thereof e.g. fresh fillets, frozen headed and gutted, smoked, etc. (See Annex III of the Regulation);
4) the intended use of the products i.e. how landed fish are intended to be used e.g. for human consumption, industrial uses, bait etc. (See Annex IV to the Regulation).
2.3. Coverage - sector

Fishery products landed on Member States territory and EEA EFTA States territory by EU and EEA EFTA vessels
2.4. Statistical concepts and definitions

Total quantities and the corresponding value of all fishery products landed in the reporting country are to be reported, regardless of the nationality of the vessel making the landings. Landings by vessels of the reporting country in foreign ports are excluded. Details on product presentation and intended use are required, as well as vessel nationality.

'Community fishing vessels' means fishing vessels flying the flag of an EU Member State and registered in the Community.

'EFTA fishing vessels' means fishing vessels flying the flag of, or registered in, an EEA EFTA country.

'Unit value' means the value at the first sale of the fishery products landed (in national currency) divided by the quantity landed (in tonnes), or for fishery products not immediately sold, the average price per tonne in national currency, estimated using an appropriate method.

Landed quantities are expressed in Tonnes Product Weight.

Unit values are reported as unit price in national currency per tonne.
2.5. Statistical unit

The basic statistical units are the individual fishing vessels.
2.6. Statistical population

All registered vessels having a fishing activity and landing fishery products in the EU and in the EEA EFTA States.
2.7. Reference area
2.7.1 Geographical area covered

The entire territory of the country.
2.7.2 Which special Member State territories are included?

3.5. Data compilation
3.5.1 Describe the data compilation process

Malta uses both logbooks and sales as data sources. By using information from logbooks, Malta is able to provide data on commercial catches. Moreover, Malta uses the Fish Market Sales Notes Scheme together with the logbooks to provide data according to the different Regulation. All information on sold fish is registered and stored in the fish market sales notes database and includes amongst other the vessels registration number, the landing place, the date and buyer, species, weight and the wholesale value. The sales notes scheme is considered to obtain data on the weight and wholesale value of fish landings that are sold at the official fish market.

For vessels less than 10m in length the small scale catch assessment sampling survey is employed. This specific sampling survey is carried out to estimate catches related to the small-scale fishing fleet. Data is collected to estimate the overall annual commercial catches of these fishing vessels by species, and to distinguish the geographical origin of the catch, for all the stocks, and according to the subdivisions defined.

The fishing area covered is the GFCM’s Geographical Sub-Area 15.

At National level: Confidentiality is one of the major principles guiding the activities of the NSO.
 
Article 40 of the MSA Act stipulates the restrictions on the use of information and in Article 41, the prohibition of disclosure of information. Furthermore, Section IX of the Act (Offences and Penalties) lays down the measures to be taken in case of unlawful exercise of any officer of statistics regarding confidentiality of data. No cases of breaches in the law have been recorded to date.
 
Since its inception, the NSO has always operated within a culture of strict confidentiality to which it is also bound by the provisions of the Data Protection Act. This Act, which came fully into effect on July 15, 2003, seeks to protect individuals against the violation of their privacy by the processing of personal data.
