The technical and control measures hereinafter laid down shall apply to vessels flying the flag of Portugal in the waters falling under the sovereignty or jurisdiction of Spain which are covered by the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) and that part covered by the Fishery Committee for the Eastern Central Atlantic (CECAF). Each year the Portuguese authorities shall forward to the Commission the 'basic lists' of the vessels, which may exercise the fishing activities. A separate list shall be forwarded for each of the following categories of vessel: vessels fishing for hake, other demersal species and horse mackerel to the north of the Rio Minho frontier, vessels fishing for hake, other demersal species and horse mackerel to the east of the Rio Guadiana frontier, vessels fishing for large migrants other than tuna (swordfish, blue shark, Ray's bream), vessels fishing for albacore tuna. Vessels authorized to fish for albacore tuna and Ray's bream may not keep on board any other fish or fish products, with the exception of anchovies intended for use as live bait, provided that the quantities strictly necessary for this purpose are not exceeded.
