EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM 
Consultations  between delegations  from  the Community and  Norway 
about their reciprocal  fishing  rights in 19S3 have not been concluded in time

In order to  avoid  a too  long  interruption of the reciprocal 
fishing  it is necessary for the Community to adopt interim arrangements for 
fishing  by Norwegian vessels applicable  until  the entry into force of 
definitive  arrangements for 1983. The  Commission  considers  that  the  final 
arrangements can enter into force on 1 May 1983. For this reason the 
Commission  proposes  that  the  Council  adopt a Regulation establishing an 
interim  regime permitting Norwegian vessels to  fish  in the Community  fishing 
zone during the abovementioned period. 
The arrangements set out in the proposal for a Regulation are 
based on the results of the consultations of 14 December 1982. 
The Commission  proposes  that  the  Council  adopt the Regulation, 
a draft of  which  is attached, as soon as possible.

Whereas in order to  avoid  a interruption of reciprocal 
fishing  by vessels of the two parties in the fisheries

reciprocal  interim arrangements; whereas it is, there­
fore, necessary  that  the Community adopt immediately 
interim  rules authorizing  fishing  by Norwegian vessels 
in the Community fisheries zone unt i I 
30 April  1983; 
Whereas, consequently, this measure should be 
adopted on a temporary basis, subject to its later  inclu­
sion in a definitive system to be adopted under  Article 
43 of the Treaty;"

between Denmark.  Norway  and Sweden on mutual 
access to  fishing  in Skagcrrak and Kattegat provides

of the other parties  within  its  fishing  zone in 
Skagerrak and part of Kattegat seawards of four 
nautical  miles  from  the base-lines; 
Whereas the Fishery Agreement of 1964 between the 
United  Kingdom  and  Norway  provides  that  Nor­
wegian  vessels are authorized to  fish for dogfish and 
basking  shark in certain  areas  between six and 12

EXPLANATORY  MEMORANDUM 
Consultations between delegations from the Community and 
the Faroe Islands about their reciprocal fishing rights in  1983  have not 
been  concluded in time to make it possible to adopt before  31 December  1982 
final arrangements for  1983  concerning the fishing of Faroese vessels in 
Community waters. 
In order to avoid a too long interruption of the reciprocal 
fishing it is necessary for the Community to adopt interim arrangements 
for fishing by Faroese vessels applicable  until  the entry  into  force of 
definitive arrangements for  1983.  The Commission considers  that  the final 
arrangements can enter  into  force on  1 May  1983.  For this reason the 
Commission  proposes  that  the Council adopt a Regulation establishing an 
interim regime permitting Faroese vessels to fish in the Community fishing 
zone during the abovementioned period. 
The arrangements set out in the proposal for a Regulation 
are based on the results of the consultations of  16 December  1982. 
The Commission proposes  that  the Council adopt the Regulation, 
a draft  of which is attached, as soon as possible.

Having regard to the proposal  from the Commission, 
Whereas  in accordance  with the procedure provided 
for by the said Agreement, and in particular Article 2 
thereof,  the Community, on the one hand, and the 
Government of Denmark  and the local Government of 
the Fsroe Islands, on the other hand, have held 
consultations concerning their mutual fishing rights 
for 1983 ; 
Whereas  during these consultations the delegations 
agreed to recommend to their respective authorities 
that they fix certain catch quotas for 1983 for  vessels 
of the other Party; 
Whereas  in order to avoid a too long  interruption  of 
reciprocal fishing by vessels of the two parties in the 
fisheries zone of the other, it is necessary  that the 
Community adopt immediately  interim  rules author­
izing fishing by Faroese vessels in the Community 
fisheries zone;

adopted on  a temporary  basis,  subject to its later inclu­

EXPLANATORY  MEMORANDUM 
Consultations between delegations from the Community and Sweden 
about their reciprocal fishing rights in  1983  have not been concluded in time 
to make it possible to adopt before  31 December  1982  final arrangements for 
1983 concerning the fishing of Swedish vessels in Community waters. 
In order to re-establish reciprocal fishing as soon as possible, 
it is necessary for the Community to adopt interim arrangements for fishing 
by Swedish vessels applicable  until  the entry  into  force of definitive 
arrangements for  1983.  The Commission considers  that  the final arrangements 
can enter  into  force on  1 May  1983.  For this reason the Commission proposes 
that the Council adopt a Regulation establishing an interim regime permitting 
Swedish  vessels to fish in the Community fishing zone  until  30 April  1983. 
The arrangements set out in the proposal for a regulation are 
based  on the results of the consultations of  18 December  1982. 
The Commission proposes  that  the Council adopt the Regulation, 
a draft  of which is attached, as soon as possible.

Having  regard to the  Treaty  establishing the European 
Economic  Community,  ( 
Having  regard  to the Fisheries  Agreement  between 
'the European Economic  Community  and tht Govern­
ment of Sweden  (1), and in  particular  Articles 
I and 6, 
Having  regard  to the proposal  from  the Commission, 
Whereas  it was not possible to adopt 
before  31 December  1982  definitive 
rules for fishing by Swedish vessels 
in .the Community fisheries zone in 
accordance,  with the conclusions of the 
consultations which took place; 
Whereas  the Agreement uf  19 December  1966  between 
Denmark, Norway and Sweden on mutual  access  to 
fishing in  Skagerrak  and Kattegat provides  that each 
Party shall grant  access  to fishing by  vessels  of the other 
Parties  within its fishing /one in  Skagerrak  and parr of 
Kattegat seawards of four nautical miles from the 
base-lines,  without quantitative limitations; 
Whereas  the ( omenrioii of .1 December l*M2 between 
Denmark and Sweden contenting fishing conditions in 
the maritime waters bordering on both Parties provides 
that each Party shill grant  access  to fishing by  vessels  of 
the other Party within its fishing zone in the Kattegat 
seawards'of  three nautical miles from the coast and in 
certain parrs of Oresund and the Baltic  Sea up to the 
base-lines,  without quantitative limitations. 
Whereas  in order  to re-establish  as soon as possible 
reciprocal fishing by vessels of the two  parties 
in the  fisheries  zone  of the  other,  it is necessary 
that the Community  adopt  irnmediately  interim  rules 
authorizing  fishing by Swedish vessels in the
