47The answer to Question 3b must therefore be that the word ‘crew’ in Annex IV to Regulation No 2051/74 and Explanatory Note 4 of Annex I to Regulation No 3184/74 does not include persons not forming part of the vessel's normal complement who are engaged in addition thereto on a particular voyage or part of a voyage to work as trainees or as unskilled hands below decks, particularly for training purposes, in order to comply with a joint venture agreement entered into with an undertaking in a nonmember country for the purpose of enabling the vessel to fish inside the exclusive economic zone of that country, whether those persons are paid either by the operator of the vessel or by the undertaking in the nonmember country.
