AB Pour permettre d'atteindre les objectifs de réduction de la puissance motrice inscrits par la Commission des Communautés, au second plan d'orientation pluriannuel de la flotte de pêche française, le ministre de la mer a proposé un plan visant à la sortie de près de 100 000 kW (soit 10 % de la puissance motrice installée a bord des navires), en contrepartie de subventions pour une vente à l'extérieur de la CEE, une destruction ou un transfert vers une activité autre que la pêche professionnelle. En mars 1992, soit un an après l'annonce des mesures gouvernementales, 975 dossiers de candidatures ont été déposés, leur liquidation doit permettre un retrait de 84 300 kW. Les dossiers proposent la destruction (94 %) d'unités de pêche de moins de 12 mètres (85%) et  de plus de 20 ans(75 %), originaires de Bretagne (48 % pour le nombre de navires st 43 % pour la puissance retirée), mais très peu de Méditerranée (seulement 9 %). Les subventions complémentaires apportées par les régions et les départements ont un effet incitatif, pourtant et de façon classique pour un outil de politique structurel, ce ne sont pas dans les régions où les flottilles sont les plus nombreuses, que la contribution en terme de pourcentage de la flottille totale est la plus importante. Une mesure de l'impact du retrait de 975 navires sur les ressources halieutiques a été tentée. En premier lieu, on montre que cet impact, bien que difficile à. évaluer, devrait être réel. En effet, d'une part le temps moyen des navires candidats au retrait était, en 1991, de l'ordre de 8.2 mois et seuls 59 navires n'étaient pas actifs. D'autre part sur la base des données disponibles, ces navires représentaient 6 à 8% des débarquements français totaux. Quelques espèces particulières devraient en tirer profit et notamment les poissons plats dont les nourriceries littorales seront davantage épargnées. [OCR NON CONTRÔLE]
AB In order to comply with the requirements of the second Multiannual Guidance Plan concerning the fishing fleets in the EEC Member Countries, the French Secretary of State for the sea has implemented a decommissionning scheme in March 1991. To facilitate the withdrawal of an overall engine power representing 100000 kW, subsidies have been attributed to owners scaping their boat of selling it outside the EEC or for a purpose other than fishing. In parallel social measures were set to help the resignation or the retirement of skippers. In March 1992 applications concerning 975 vessels representing about 84 300 kW had been presented. Brittany accounts for 48.5 % of the boats and 43 % of the withdrawn power whereas the mediterranean ports represent only 9 % of the power. The bulk of the candidates (94 %) apply for scraping and 85 % are vessels under 12 meters with a limited power and about 75 % are older than 20 years. Among skippers no significant differences appear in the age classes, leading to the conclusion that the plan was not an incentive for an early retirement. Conversely the subsidies provided by the government, the regions and departments had a stimulating effect on the withdrawal of power although the regions having the largest fleets are not the main contributors in terms of percentage of their fleet. An attempt has been made to assess the effects of the plan on the fisheries resources. The main yearly fishing time of the candidates in the year prior to the plan was 8.2 months and only 59 boats were not active. The multigear vessels represent 38.4 % of the candidates which stem from the fact that small vessels fish in the coastal zone all year long on different species in succession (elvers, bass, bivalves, crustaceans...). Trawlers appear in the second place but this group is heterogeneous with vessels under 10 m fishing along the coast and vessels above 28 m fishing in the Celtic sea and West of the British isles. The actual impact on fish stocks is almost impossible to assess for several reasons. In some areas an important part of the vessels concerned were not selling their catches on official markets and there exist no records of their landings. For the boats which were involved in international fisheries it would have been necessary to know the evolution of the fishing effort of the remaining boats. Based on existing landings statistics the production of the decommissionned boats was estimated to represent 6 to 8 % of the overall landings of the French fleet. Even in the absence of a proper assessment, the reduction of the number of trawlers operating in the coastal areas with small mesh nets on the nurseries of flatfish is likely to have a beneficial effect. In the case of scallop fisheries and some elver fisheries whith are regulated by a licensing system the reduction of the fishing effort stemming from the decommissionning scheme should also result in an improvement of the productivity of the remaining boats provided their effort remains stable.
