ANNEX II  REMARKS  The Commission finds that the programme presented by the Spanish Government as a framework for future Community and national financial assistance is an adequate basis for promoting development of facilities at fishing ports and of the processing and marketing of fishery products.  The Commission must point out that development of facilities at ports and of processing and marketing must be geared to the probable trend of resource volumes and to the results and objectives of the multiannual guidance programmes for the fishing fleet and for aquaculture.  The Commission must also point to the necessity of compliance, in projects and programmes financed through the structural funds and Community financial instruments, of compliance with Community rules on public contracts (1).
