GT = K 1 - V where V is volume, given by:

Commission Decision of 30 March 1999 (IV/JV.15 - BT/AT & T);

T he gross tonnage of existing fishing vessels of overall length less than 15 metres is defined as: GT = K1Ŕ V where V is volume, given by: V = a2 (LoaŔ B1Ŕ T1) wh ere: B1 = breadth in metres T1 = depth in metres a2 = a function of Loa

Vessels 15 metres overall length - 24 metres length between perpendiculars The gross tonnage of vessels of overall length equal to, or greater than, 15 metres and of length betwe en perpendiculars less than 24 metres is defined as: GT = K1Ŕ V where V is the total enclosed volume as defined by the 1969 Convention.

The minimum programme shall include: - the monitoring of fishing effort through the collection of data on the following parameters: - number of vessels - gross tonnage (GT) - engine power (kW) - age of vessel - gear used - time spent at sea during the year, - the monitoring of commercial fisheries through the collection of data of landings and discards, biological sampling and surveys, as follows:

In GT, an increase in tonnage permitted on grounds of safety pursuant to Article 11 of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002.

All vessels constructed (measure 21) must have their tonnage measured in GT, and the tonnage of all modernised vessels (mesure 22) must be remeasured in GT (Annex IV, point 1.4(a) to Regulation (EC) No 2792/1999).

Shipowners shall contribute EUR 3,5 per GRT per quarter per vessel to the costs of scientific observation.

The build-up of resistance by insects to the Bt-toxin through continued exposure is an example of a delayed effect.

This would not be the case for GMOs modified for herbicide tolerance alone, as these GMOs do not contain a Bt-toxin gene.

concerning the placing on the market of genetically modified maize (Zea. mays L. line Bt-11), pursuant to Council Directive 90/220/EEC (Text with EEA relevance) (98/292/EC)

The consent shall cover grains from progenies derived from crosses of maize line Bt-11 with any traditionally bred maize imported into the Community.

the product documentation will also indicate that specific labelling requirements may be applicable in the Community for products derived from maize line Bt-11;

Notwithstanding Article 28b of Regulation (EC) No 2847/93, Norwegian vessels of less than 200 GT shall be exempt from the obligation to have a licence and a fishing permit.

resistance management (for example, type and dose of herbicide for herbicide-tolerant plants, or change in use of biological control via Bt proteins, or impact of viruses),

However, any subsequent effects for example, the potential development of insect resistance to the Bt-toxin will only be linked to GMOs modified to express this specific toxin.

Before the end of 2003, the Contracting Parties, acting in the Joint Committee, undertake to replace all references in this Protocol to GRT with GT and to adapt all the provisions affected thereby accordingly.

This would include the likes of monitoring of intended effects on target organisms arising from the modification, an example of which would be monitoring of corn borer populations with respect to the cultivation of Bt-maize varieties.
