Operators of aquaculture establishments shall keep the records provided for in paragraph 1 on their aquaculture establishment concerned and shall: keep them in such a way that the tracing of the place of origin and destination of aquatic animals can be guaranteed; make them available to the competent authority on request; retain them for a minimum period to be prescribed by the competent authority, which may not be less than three years. By way of derogation from the requirement that the records are to be kept on their establishment concerned, as set out in the first subparagraph, when it is physically not possible to keep the records on that establishment, they shall be kept in the office from which the business is administered.
