Consultations between the C o m m u n ity  and the Faroe Islands in Brussels 
o n  1 2  and 1 3  D ecem ber 1983 resulted in an A greed Record defining a  
reciprocal fishery arrangement for 1984. This arrangement provides, inter

fishery zone.
T he purpose of this proposed regulation is to allocate between 
M e m b e r States the quotas available in 1984 for C o m m u n ity  fishing vessels 
in the Faroese zone under the abovementioned arrangements.
T h e proposed allocations of the quotas available to the C o m m u n ity  
between M e m b e r States are based o n  the principles used for the allocation

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
Consultations between the Community and the Faroe Islands in accordance with  
the Framework Agreement on Fisheries were held in Brussels on 12 and 13 December  
1983. These consultations resulted in an agreement on reciprocal fishery  
arrangements for 1984 concerning each Party's fishing rights in the other's zone.
The level of Community catches compared to allocated quotas in the Faroese zone  
has been at a low level in recent years due notably to the complicated Faroese  
fishery legislation with respect to third country fishing vessels. However,  
significant improvements have been obtained for 1984 in three respects.
(i)  access to areas from which Community vessels have  
previously been excluded, .
(ii) greater flexibility in the use of different types of  
fishing gear,
(iii) increase in the number of licences allocated to the Community.
These improvements should facilitate a marked increase in the level of Community  
catches in 1984.
The level of fishing possibilities under the 1984 reciprocal arrangements  
for each Party in the other's zone, in view of the improvements made«  
has been maintained at the same level as in 1983, i.e. approximately 20 000  
tonnes equivalent cod.
The purpose of the proposed regulation is thus to authorise Faroese vessels  
to fish from 1 January 1984 with the quotas allocated to them for 1984 in  
Community waters in accordance with the above-mentioned reciprocal fishery  
arrangements. To avoid an interruption in mutual fishery relations between the  
Community and the Faroe Islands, this proposed regulation must be adopted, at  
the latest,  by the end of this year. ■
