This is the original version (as it was originally adopted).
a1 = 0,5194 + 0,0145 Loa but not to be taken less than 0,60
where Loa is the overall length as defined in Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 2930/86.
a2 = 0,4974 + 0,0255 Loa but not to be taken less than 0,60
For Spain, Greece and Italy, which do not have available the Oslo Convention parameters required to estimate gross tonnage using a2 in the formular specified by Council Regulation (EC) No 3259/94, the following provisions will apply:
Spain:
Oslo Convention parameters will be estimated on the basis of the national parameters currently available.
Greece, Italy:
The formula to estimate gross tonnage will be developed by Greece and Italy based on the national parameters currently available.
Spain, Italy and Greece will progressively substitute the estimates of tonnage so obtained by tonnage calculated using the function a1 according to the rate set down in Annex 2 for the application of the London Convention parameters to this category of vessels.
a3 = 0,3097 Bi/Ti + Loa (Y - 1900)/2767-C but not to be taken less than 0,65 or more than 1,45
where Y is the year of construction, not to be taken less than 1950, and where B1 and T1 are the hull breadth and depth respectively as defined by the Oslo Convention. The additive adjustment C takes the following values:
— Belgium | 0,35, |
— Germany | 0,34, |

For Spain and Italy, which do not have available the Oslo Convention parameters required to estimate gross tonnage using a3 in the formular specified by Council Regulation (EC) No 3259/94, the following provisions will apply:
Spain:
Oslo Convention parameters will be estimated on the basis of the national parameters currently available.
Italy:
The formula to estimate gross tonnage will be developed by Italy based on the national parameters currently available.
The estimates and formulae developed by Spain, Greece and Italy described in paragraphs 2 and 3 are subject to the agreement of the Commission and will be available for inspection by other Member States.
The gross tonnage of vessels whose form or constructional features are such as to render the application of these formulae unreasonable or impracticable (catamarans, trimarans and other vessels of novel design) shall be determined by the administration of the Member State concerned. Where the tonnage is so determined, the administration shall communicate to the Commission details of the method used for that purpose. These will be made available for examination by other Member States.
The number (n) of vessels to be remeasured is communicated to the Commission within the two months following the adoption of the present Decision.
The application of the London Convention parameters to the vessels concerned by this Annex is ensured according to the following rate:
by 31 December 1995 at least 25 % of n,
by 31 December 1996 at least 50 % of n,
by 31 December 1997 at least 75 % of n,
by 31 December 1998 100 % of n.
The number of vessels to be remeasured (N) is communicated to the Commission within the two months following the adoption of the present Decision.
The effective remeasurement of the vessels concerned by this Annex is ensured according to the following rate:
by 31 December 1997 at least 33 % of N,
by 31 December 1999 at least 55 % of N,
by 31 December 2001 at least 77 % of N,
by 31 December 2003 100 % of N.
