Areas of Cooperation 1. To achieve the objectives of cooperation in fisheries within the described principles, cooperation will include fisheries management and conservation issues, vessel management and post harvest arrangements and financial and trade measures and development of fisheries and fisheries products and marine aquaculture.
2. The EC Party will contribute to the mobilisation of the resources for the implementation of the identified areas of cooperation at national and regional levels, which will also include support for regional capacity building. Furthermore, the EC Party contributes to the measures as described in the section concerning financial and trade measures, and on infrastructure development specific for fisheries and marine aquaculture.
Scope of Cooperation 1. The Authorities recognise the importance of close communication concerning the Covered CCPs and intend to cooperate regarding:
a) general issues, including with respect to regulatory, supervisory, enforcement or other developments concerning the Covered CCPs and Australia;
b) issues relevant to the operations, activities and services of the Covered CCPs;
c) the coordination of supervisory activities and, where appropriate and consistent with applicable laws and each Authority’s mandate, providing assistance in the implementation of enforcement decisions;
d) any other areas of mutual interest.
2. The Authorities recognise in particular the importance of close cooperation in the event that a Covered CCP, particularly one whose failure likely would be systemically important to an Authority, experiences, or is threatened by, a potential financial crisis or other Emergency Situation. One or both of the Local Authorities should provide notification to ESMA, and ESMA should provide notification to the Local Authorities, consistent with Article 3(4) below and each Authority should keep the other Authorities appropriately informed throughout the Emergency Situation. The Local Authorities should coordinate and lead in an Emergency Situation and should consult with and take account of the views of ESMA to the greatest extent practicable. ESMA should coordinate with the relevant CBI(s) regarding an Emergency Situation of a Covered CCP and any emergency measures that the CBI may consider appropriate.
3. Cooperation will be most useful in circumstances where issues of regulatory, supervisory or enforcement concern may arise, including but not limited to:
a) the initial application of a Covered CCP for recognition in the European Union pursuant to Article 25 of EMIR and the periodic reviews of its recognition pursuant to Article 25(5) of EMIR;
b) ESMA’s assessment of compliance and monitoring of the ongoing compliance by a Covered CCP with the Recognition Conditions;
c) the tiering determination of a Covered CCP by ESMA pursuant to Article 25(2a) of EMIR;
d) changes in a Covered CCP's internal rules, policies and procedures that could affect the way in which the Covered CCP complies with any Recognition Conditions;
e) regulatory, supervisory or enforcement actions or approvals taken by a Local Authority or ESMA in relation to a Covered CCP, including changes to the relevant obligations and requirements to which the Covered CCPs are subject that may impact the Covered CCPs' continued compliance with the Recognition Conditions; and
f) changes to regulatory status or requirements that could result in a change in the regulatory status of, relief granted to, or supervisory treatment of a Covered CCP and potentially could disrupt cross-border clearing arrangements.
