fixing the export refunds on cereal-based compound feedingstuffs
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1784/2003 of 29 september 2003 on the common organisation of the market in cereals (1), and in particular Article 13(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Article 13 of Regulation (EC) No 1784/2003 provides that the difference between quotations or prices on the world market for the products listed in Article 1 of that Regulation and prices for those products within the Community may be covered by an export refund.
(2)
Commission Regulation (EC) No 1517/95 of 29 June 1995 laying down detailed rules for the application of Regulation (EC) No 1784/2003 as regards the arrangements for the export and import of compound feedingstuffs based on cereals and amending Regulation (EC) No 1162/95 laying down special detailed rules for the application of the system of import and export licences for cereals and rice (2) in Article 2 lays down general rules for fixing the amount of such refunds.
(3)
That calculation must also take account of the cereal products content. In the interest of simplification, the refund should be paid in respect of two categories of ‘cereal products’, namely for maize, the most commonly used cereal in exported compound feeds and maize products, and for ‘other cereals’, these being eligible cereal products excluding maize and maize products. A refund should be granted in respect of the quantity of cereal products present in the compound feedingstuff.

(5)
The current situation on the cereals market and, in particular, the supply prospects mean that the export refunds should be abolished.

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1

Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on 25 February 2005.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

prohibiting fishing for greater forkbeard in ICES zones VIII and IX (Community waters and international waters) by vessels flying the flag of Portugal
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 of 20 December 2002 on the conservation and sustainable exploitation of fisheries resources under the Common Fisheries Policy (1), and in particular Article 26(4) thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2847/93 of 12 October 1993 establishing a control system applicable to the Common Fisheries Policy (2), and in particular Article 21(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Council Regulation (EC) No 2270/2004 of 22 December 2004 fixing for 2005 and 2006 the fishing opportunities for Community fishing vessels for certain deep-sea fish stocks (3) lays down quotas for 2005 and 2006.

The fishing quota allocated to the Member State referred to in the Annex to this Regulation for the stock referred to therein shall be deemed to be exhausted from the date set out in that Annex.
Article 2

amending for the third time Regulation (EC) No 2341/2002 fixing for 2003 the fishing opportunities and associated conditions for certain fish stocks and groups of fish stocks, applicable in Community waters and, for Community vessels, in waters where catch limitations are required
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2371/2002 of 20 December 2002 on the conservation and sustainable exploitation of fisheries resources under the Common Fisheries Policy(1), and in particular Article 20(1) and (4) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas:
(1) Regulation (EC) No 2341/2002(2) fixes the fishing opportunities and associated conditions for certain fish stocks and groups of stocks applicable in Community waters and for Community vessels, in waters where limitations in catch are required for 2003. Amendments to the Regulation are required following recommendations recently made by the International Baltic Sea Fishery Commission (IBSFC).
(2) In June 2003 the IBSFC made the following recommendations:
- the total allowable catch (TAC) for sprat in zone III b,c,d (EC waters) should be increased from 310000 tonnes to 341000 tonnes,
- the minimum mesh size for towed nets without an exit window when fishing for cod should be reduced from 140 to 130 mm from 1 October 2003,
- the minimum mesh opening of the window in a "top window codend Bacoma" should be reduced from 120 mm to 110 mm.
(3) The Contracting Parties of IBSFC agreed to allow for the implementation of the recommendations before the end of the objection period referred to in the Convention establishing IBSFC.
(4) It is necessary that the Community apply these measures immediately after the summer ban in order to avoid extra costs for the fishermen.
(5) However, scientific information indicates that towed nets without an exit window are less selective than the Bacoma type gear. It is therefore appropriate not to allow, within Community waters and for Community vessels, the use of towed gear without an exit window.
(6) Regulation (EC) No 2341/2002 should therefore be amended accordingly,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Annexes IA, IC and V to Regulation (EC) No 2341/2002 shall be amended in accordance with the Annex to this Regulation.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply from 1 September 2003.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
