C0M(94) 459 final 
Brussels, 26.10.1994 

Proposal  for a 

COUNCIL REGULATION  (EC) 

amending Regulation (EQ  No.3676/93 
fixing,for certain fish stocks and groups of fish stocks, 
the total allowable catches for 1994 and certain conditions under which they may be 
fished 

(presented  by  the Commission) 

EXPLANATORY  MEMORANDUM 

The objective of the present proposal  is to fix  fishing  possibilities  for  certain stocks of  fish 
and to allocate these equitably to Member States.  The fixing  and the sharing of possibilities 
for  fishing  falls  exclusively  within  the  competence  of  the  Community  and  arises  from 
obligations  set  out  in  Article  8(4)  of  Regulation  (EEC)  n°  3760/92  of  the  Council  of 
20 December  19921, establishing  a Community  regime  for  fishing  and  aquaculture. 

The TAC s for  sprat and whiting in the North Sea, and for haddock to the West of Scotland 
appear  insufficient  to  maintain  exploitation  for  the  whole of  1994.  According  to the  most 
recent  scientific  information,  an  increase  in  these  TAC's  would  not jeopardize  the  future 
management  of the  resources  concerned. 

On the  other  hand,  the  system  of  rotatory  closures  of  the herring  fishery  in the  Celtic  Sea 
should  be continued  in  1994. 

This  proposal  intends  to  address  these  problems  by  modifying  Council  Regulation  (EC) 
N°3676/932

Proposal for a 

Council  Regulation (EQ  No 

/94 of 

1994 

amending Regulation (EQ  No.3676/93 
flxing,for certain fish stocks and groups of fish stocks, 
the total allowable catches for 1994 and certain conditions under which they may be 
fished 

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION, 

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, 

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No. 3760/92 of 20 December  1992 establishing 
a Community system for fisheries and aquaculture1, and in particular Article 8 (4) thereof, 

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, 

Whereas under the terms of Article 8 (4) of Regulation (EEC) No  3760/92  it is  incumbent 

upon the  Council  to  establish  the  total  allowable  catches  (TACs)  by  fishery  or  group  of 

fisheries; 

Whereas Regulation (EC) No.3676/93, fixes, for certain fish stocks and groups offish stocks, 

the TACs for  1994 and certain conditions under which they may be  fished; 

Whereas the state of the stocks of sprat and whiting in the North Sea, and of haddock to the 

west  of  Scotland allow  increases  in their respective  TACs  without  endangering the  future 

management of these resources; 

Whereas, taking account of the latest scientific  advice,  it is  necessary to establish  seasonal 

limitations on fishing activities  in the Celtic Sea in order to limit fishing for herring; 

O.J. No L389,31.12.1992, p.l 

2^ 

Whereas Regulation ((EC) No 3676/93 should therefore be amended accordingly, 

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION : 

Article 1 

Regulation (EC) No3676793  is amended as follows : 

1.  A new paragraph 7a is added to Article 6 as follows :

-  latitude S^ISN,  longitude 09°00'W, 

-  latitude S l ^ N,  longitude  lrOOW, 

-  latitude 52°3(m,  longitude  11°00W, 

- the west coast of Ireland at latitude 52°30'N" 

2.  The Annex to this Regulation replaces the corresponding elements of the Annex. 

Article 2

Official  Journal of the European Communities. 

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States. 

Done at Brussels, 

For the Council, 

ITic President.
