COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 1173/95 of 22 May 1995 amending, for the sixteenth time, Regulation (EEC) No 3094/86 laying down certain technical measures for the conservation of fishery resources

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 43 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),

Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (2),

Whereas, under Articles 2 and 4 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 3760/92 of 20 December 1992 establishing a Community system for fisheries and aquaculture (3), the Council must adopt, in the light of available scientific opinion, the conservation measures needed to guarantee the rational and responsible exploitation of living marine aquatic resources on a sustainable basis; whereas, to this end, the Council may establish technical measures regarding fishing gear and methods of using it;

Whereas it is necessary to define principles and certain procedures for establishing these technical measures at Community level, so that each Member State can manage fishing activities in the maritime waters under its jurisdiction or sovereignty;

Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 3094/86 (4) lays down the general technical rules for catching and landing biological resources in the waters which it defines;

Whereas under Article 9 (3) and (4) of Regulation (EEC) No 3094/86, only Community beam trawlers meeting certain criteria may be entered on a list authorizing them to fish in the flatfish protected area;

Whereas one of these criteria is the restriction of engine power and it is now necessary, in ortder to enforce compliance with the criterion, to ban beam trawlers whose engine power exceeds the levels authorized in Article 9 (3) and (4) after they have been entered on the list for fishing in the fishing area referred to in that Article;

Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 3094/86 should therefore be amended,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The following paragraph shall be inserted in Article 9 of Regulation (EEC) No 3094/86:

'4 (a). Fishing vessels which do not satisfy the criteria permitting them to be entered on the lists established pursuant to paragraphs 3 and 4 shall be forbidden to engage in the fishing activities referred to in those paragraphs.`

COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 1266/95 of 29 May 1995 amending Regulation (EEC) No 3901/89 defining lambs fattened as heavy carcases

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3013/89 of 25 September 1989 on the common organization of the market in sheepmeat and goatmeat (1), and in particular Article 4 (2) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 3901/89 (2) establishes the definition of lambs fattened as heavy carcases which are produced by ewes producing milk; whereas that Regulation, which lays down the conditions under which the said definition applies, also lays down limited derogations with regard to weaning for lambs belonging to a limited number of meat breeds and raised in geographically well-defined areas; whereas experience obtained has shown that the fact that those lambs are subject to the other conditions laid down in that Regulation has resulted in the introduction of a control procedure out of proportion to the objective, that is to guarantee that the lambs achieve a sufficiently high weight at slaughter; whereas, therefore, provision should be made for the derogations, currently restricted to the weaning of the lambs, to be extended to other conditions to be determined,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The second subparagraph of Article 1 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 3901/89 is hereby replaced by the following:
