Whereas:
(1) Regulation (EC) No 2742/1999(2) sets a TAC for anchovy in the Bay of Biscay (ICES sub-area VIII) of 16000 tonnes. This figure was adopted in the light of scientific advice indicating that the spawning stock biomass in 2000 could be dangerously low.
(2) Improved scientific estimates of the spawning stock biomass have been provided by the Scientific, Technical and Economic Committee for Fisheries.
(3) According to this scientific advice, the spawning stock biomass is considerably higher than the previously estimated value and therefore a TAC of 33000 tonnes may be established.
(4) These fishing opportunities should be allocated to Member States in accordance with Article 8(4)(ii) of Regulation (EEC) No 3760/92.
(5) In order to ensure the livelihood of Community fishermen, it is important to establish the new TAC as early as possible in 2000.
