37Regulation No 2847/93 thus provides specific indications as to the content of the measures which must be taken by the Member States and which must seek to ensure that fishery operations are conducted properly with the objective of both preventing any breaches and punishing such breaches. That objective means that the measures implemented must be effective, proportionate and a deterrent. As the Advocate General has observed in point 39 of his Opinion of 29 April 2004, there must be a serious risk, for persons engaging in fishing activity and related activities, that in the event of infringement of the rules of the common fisheries policy, they will be detected and have sufficiently severe penalties imposed on them.
