(7) However, due to the patterns of fishing not all EU Member States are visited by these larger fishing vessels. Additionally, in fisheries there is no harmonized legal framework at EU level on domains such as maritime safety, vessels' construction and living and working conditions on board. Therefore, a voluntary system for those EU Member States that wish to carry out these inspections and which is separate from the current port state control regime is being proposed to allow for flexibility and the way that standards are developed in port State control. This system of port State control of fishing vessel of over 24 metres in length can therefore be developed organically by Member States, the Paris MoU and the Commission. The port State control rules developed by the Member States that so wish must be proportionate and non-discriminatory.

Recital 16 a (new)
(16a) In the exercise of its delegated powers the Commission shall take into account the need to ensure a level playing field in terms of port State control rules among Member States and fleets and harmonisation of the rules at EU level. For this purpose, the Commission should, in parallel, actively encourage and assist Member States to ratify relevant international conventions.
