THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, 
Whereas under the terms of Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 170/83 it is 
incumbent upon the Council to establish the total allowable catches 
(TACs) by stock or group of stocks, the share available for the 
Community and the specific conditions under which these catches must be 
taken; whereas, under Article 4 of the same Regulation, the share 
available to the Community is allocated among the Member States; 
Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No.3882/91 of 18 December 199l(2>, 
fixes, for certain fish stocks and groups of fish stocks, the TACs for 
1991 and certain conditions under which they may be fished;
