COUNCIL  REGULATION  (EC) 

fixing, for certain fish stocks and groups of fish stocks, the total 
allowable catches for 1995 and certain conditions under which 
they may be  fished 

(presented by the Commission) 

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM 

This proposal for a Council Regulation fixes the total allowable catches (TACs) for  1995, the 
Community  share  of them,  the  distribution  of those  shares  among  Member  States  and  the 
conditions under which the quotas may be fished.  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) No  3760/92  of  the  Council  of  20 
December  1992. 

It should be noted that, as a consequence of the accession of Sweden and Finland, new stocks 
are included  in the proposal,  as compared with 1994. 

In the case of autonomous  stocks where the Advisory  Committee on Fishery  Management 
(ACFM) based its advice on analytical assessments, and where the EC Scientific,  Technical 
and Economic Committee for Fisheries (STECF) has endorsed the ACFM advice, the TACs 
proposed are based on the advice of these committees. 

In the case of autonomous  stocks for which no analytical  assessments  are available,  TACs 
(precautionary  TACs)  have  been  proposed.  In  such  cases,  the  Commission  has  based  its 
proposal on advice either from ACFM or from STECF wherever these bodies give an explicit 
value  for  the  TAC.  Where  no  explicit  value  is  given,  the  proposed  value  is  equal  to  that 
adopted last year by the Council. 

The consultations  between the Community  and Norway,  held  in Brussels  on 30 November 
1994, resulted in an agreement on reciprocal fisheries arrangements for  1995, until 31 March. 
These  arrangements  imply,'  inter  alia,  certain  catch  quotas  for  Norwegian  vessels  in 
Community waters. 

The  most  recent  report  of  ACFM  indicates  that  many  of  the  stocks  of  demersal  fish, 
particularly  cod,  haddock,  whiting,  saithe  and  hake  are  very  heavily  exploited  and  are 
considered  to  be  in  a  state  which  is  actually  or  potentially  outside  safe  biological  limits. 
Depending  on  the  stock  in  question,  ACFM  have  recommended  restrictive  TACs.  The 
recommendations of ACFM are reflected  in the proposed regulation. Furthermore, analytical 
assessments of the state of a number of stocks in Region 3 have become available this year. 
The results of  these assessments are also reflected  in the proposed regulation. 

The technical conditions proposed for  1995 are broadly the same as for  1994.  However, there 
are some reinforcements  and changes as indicated below. 

1) 

Given that certain technical measures should be implemented as from 1  January 1995, 
they are included in the proposal,  in the form  of temporary  derogations to the main 
rules, while waiting for the corresponding regulations to be amended accordingly. In 
particular: 

A proposal  is  made to  maintain  the  currently  defined  conditions  for  a  directed 
fishery  on whiting until  31 December  1995. In addition,  it is also proposed that 
the minimum mesh size for  fishing for herring is maintained throughout  1995 at 

1 

the  current  value  of  32  mm  and  that  the  minimum  mesh  size  for  fishing  for 
Pandalus becomes 35mm for the same period. 

fhe  prohibition  for  beam  trawling  in  the  Southern  North  Sea,  established  in 
Article  9(3)  of  Regulation  (EEC)  No3094/86  (Plaice  box),  is  extended  to  the 
whole year 1995. 

2) 

3) 

1 rie technical  measures recommended by the IBSFC during its last meeting are also 
proposed.  They concern a seasonal ban on cod fishing  and new rules on mesh sizes. 

For  the  new  stocks  appearing  as  a  consequence  of  the  enlargement,  the  associated 
conditions for fishing which appeared in the bilateral regulations for  1994 are included 
in this proposal  and kept unchanged.

/94 

of 

1994 

fixing, for certain fish stocks and groups of fish stocks, the total 
allowable catches for  1995 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 Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal, and in particular Articles 157, 

161 and  348 thereof, 

Having  regard  to  the  Act  of  Accession  of  Austria,  Sweden,  Finland  and  Norway,  and  in 

particular  Articles 44, 47, 48,  121, and  122 thereof. 

Having regard  to the proposal from  the Commission, 

Whereas Article 4 of Regulation (EEC) No.  3760/92 requires the Council to formulate,  in 

the  light  of the available  scientific  advice  and,  in particular,  of the report  prepared  by the 

Scientific,  Technical  and  Economic  Committee  for  Fisheries,  the  measures  necessary  to 

ensure the rational and responsible exploitation of resources  on a sustainable basis; 

Whereas a management regime making full  use of  the new management possibilities given 

by Regulation (EEC) No. 3760/92 cannot yet be achieved, due to the need to put into force 

certain measures for the control of fisheries, to further develop the appropriate administrative 

framework  (licensing  system)  and  to enhance  scientific  knowledge;  whereas,  until  such a 

1  O.J.  No  L389,  31.12.1992,  p.1 

management  regime  is consolidated,  limitation of exploitation  rates  should be guaranteed  by 

the  current  TAC  system; 

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

upon the Council,  in accordance with Article 4, to establish the total allowable catches (TAC) 

by fishery  or group of fisheries;  whereas fishing  opportunities should be allocated to Member 

States  in  accordance  with  the  second  subparagraph  of  Article  8(4)(ii); 

Whereas  it  is  necessary  to  establish  the  principles  and  certain  procedures  of  fishery 

management  at the Community  level,  so that Member  States can ensure  the management  of 

the  fleets  under  their  flag  or  jurisdiction; 

Whereas,  in  accordance  with  the  procedure  provided  for  in  Article  2  of  the  Agreement  on 

fisheries  between the European Community  and the Government  of Denmark  and the  Home 
Government  of  the  Faroe  Islands  of  the  other  part2,  the  parties  have  consulted  on  their 

reciprocal  fishing  rights  for  1995;  whereas  these  consultations  have  been  successfully 

concluded;  whereas, as a result,  it is possible to fix the TACs, the Community  shares and the 

quotas  for  certain  joint  and  autonomous  stocks,  of  which  part  is  allocated  to  the  Faroe 

Islands; 

Whereas,  in  accordance  with  the  procedure  provided  in  Articles  2  and  7  of  the  Fisheries 
Agreement  between  the  European  Economic  Community  and  the Kingdom  of Norway3,  the 

Community  and  Norway  have  held  consultations  concerning  mutual  fishing  rights  for  the 

period  untill  31 March  1995  and the  managment  of  common  biological  resources;  whereas 

the  Community  and  Norway  agreed  to  hold  consultations  on  their  mutual  fishing  rights  for 

the  remainder  months  of  1995  as early  as  possible  in  1995; 

Whereas  the  Community  has  signed  the  United  Nations  Convention  on the  Law  of  the  Sea, 

which contains principles and rules relating to the conservation and management of the living 

resources  of  the  sea; 

2  O.J.  No  L226,  29.08.1980,  p. 12 

3  OJ  No  L226,  29.08.1980,  p.48 

Whereas,  in the framework  of its wider international obligations, the Community  participates 

in efforts  to conserve  fish  stocks arising  in international  waters;  whereas  the extent to which 

such  stocks  are  fished  by  vessels  of the Community  should  be viewed  in the light  of  overall 

fishing  activity  and  the  contribution  made  hitherto  by  the  Community  towards  their 

conservation  should  be  taken  into  account; 

Whereas  the  International  Baltic  Sea  Fishery  Commission  has  recommended  TACs  for  the 

stocks  of  cod,  salmon,  herring  and  sprat  occurring  in  the  waters  of  the  Baltic  Sea  and  the 

shares  thereof  for  each  contracting  party; 

Whereas,  in the case of certain stocks fished  mainly for  reduction to meal and oil, it does not 

appear  necessary  to  make  quota  allocations; 

Whereas  Article  161  of  the  Act  of  Accession  of  Spain  and  Portugal  fixes  the  share  of  the 

TACs  allocated to Spain for  certain stocks in certain zones and allocates  flat-rate  amounts of 

horse  mackerel  and  blue  whiting  to  Spain; 

Whereas  those flat-rate  amounts of blue whiting must be divided  among ICES sub-areas  and 

divisions  Vb  (EC  zone),  VI,  VII  and  Villa,  b  and  d; 

Whereas, pursuant to Article  158 of the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal, a distinction 

must  be  made  between  fishing  for  demersal  species  and  fishing  for  species  other  than 

demersal;  whereas  the  group  to  which  blue  whiting,  anchovy  and  horse  mackerel  belong 

must  therefore  be  defined; 

Whereas,  in  order  to  ensure  effective  management  of  these  TACs,  the  specific  conditions 

under  which  fishing  operations  occur  should  be  established; 

Whereas,  in order to ensure a better exploitation of the quotas of herring, hake, blue whiting, 

mackerel and megrim,  transfers  of a part of the quotas from  the zone of allocation to  adjacent 

zones  should  be  allowed; 

Whereas,  in  order  to  ensure  a  better  exploitation  of  the  haddock  stocks  in  zones  Vb  (EC 

zone),  VI,  XII  and  XIV,  catches  in  zones  Vb  and  Via  should  be  limited; 

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; 

Whereas  catches  of  certain  pelagic  species  and  certain  shrimps  (Pandalus  spp.  except 

Pandalus  montagui)  may  be  taken  with  a  mesh  size  which  derogates  from  Community 

regulations;  whereas  catches  of  whiting  may  be  taken  in  conditions  that  derogate  from 

Community  regulations;  whereas  scientific  advice  on  these  issues  is  already  available; 

whereas,  until  the  necessary  amendments  have been made  to Council  Regulation  (EEC)  No 
3094/864, as last modified  by Regulation  (EC) No.  1796/945,  it is appropriate to prolong the 

current  conditions  of  fishing  for  the  above-mentioned  species  as  defined  by  article  9  of 
Council  Regulation  (EC)  No.  3676/936; 

Whereas  massive  catches  of  young  flatfish  are  being  taken  in  the  southern  North  Sea  in 

autumn;  whereas  protection  should  be  given  to  these  fish,  in  order  to  achieve  a  better 

exploitation; 

Whereas  the  International  Baltic  Sea  Fisheries  Commission  has  recommended  certain 

technical  measures  for  resource  conservation  and  other  dispositions  on  control  of  fishing 

activities,  to  be  implemented  by  its  contracting  parties  with  effect  from  1 January  1995; 

Whereas,  pursuant  to  Articles  48  and  122  of  the  Act  of  Accession  of  Austria,  Sweden, 

Finland  and  Norway,  the  conditions  under  which  allocations  made  in the  framework  of  the 

Accession  can  be  fished  will  remain  identical  to  those  applicable  immediately  prior  to  the 

entry  in  force  of  the  Accession  Treaty;

6  O.  J.  No.  L341,  31.12.1993,  p. 1 

Whereas  improved  economical  utilization  of  certain  stocks  of  herring  requires  them  to  be 

used  for  purposes  other  than direct human consumption;  whereas  the  state of these  stocks  is 

such  that,  under  appropriate  management,  there  is  no  danger  in  implementing  such  a 

measure; 

Whereas, pursuant to Article 2(3) of the Treaty of Accession of Austria, Sweden, Finland and 

Norway,  the  institutions  of  the  Union  may  adopt  before  accession  the  measures  referred  to 

in  Articles  44,  47,  48,  94,  121, and  122 of  the  Act  of  Accession, 

HAS  ADOPTED  THIS  REGULATION: 

Article 1 

This  Regulation  fixes  for  1995,  for  certain  fish  stocks  and  groups  of  fish  stocks,  total 

allowable  catches  (TACs) per  stock  or  group  of  stocks,  the  share  of these  catches  available 

to  the  Community,  the  allocation  of  that  share  among  Member  States  and  the  specific 
conditions  under  which  these  stocks  may  be  fished7. 

For  the purposes  of this  Regulation,  the Skagerrak  is bounded  on the  west by a line  drawn 

from  the Hanstholm  lighthouse to the Lindesnes  lighthouse  and on the south by a line drawn 

from  the Skagen lighthouse to the Tistlarna lighthouse and from  this point to the nearest point 

on  the  Swedish  coast. 

For  the  purposes  of  this  Regulation,  the  Kattegat  is  bounded  on  the  north  by  a  line  drawn 

from  the Skagen lighthouse to the Tistlarna lighthouse and from  this point to the nearest point 

on the Swedish coast and on the south by a line drawn from  Hasen0re to Gnibens Spids,  from 

Korshage  to  Spodsbjerg  and  from  Gilbjerg  Hoved  to  Kullen. 

For the purposes of this Regulation, the North Sea shall comprise ICES Sub-area IV and that 

part  of  ICES  division  Ilia  which  is not covered  by  the  definition  of  the  Skagerrak  given  in 

this  article.

ANNEX II 

EXIT WINDOW  (model  1) 

Two exit windows with plastic coated, fully opened diamond meshes shall be attached to the 

codend  of trawls and Danish seines  in the cod fishery.  The mesh opening  shall  be no less 

than  108 mm. The exit windows shall be attached with a separate piece of netting (between 

the  ordinary  diamond  meshes  and  the  meshes  of  the  exit  window).  The  mesh  size  of  the 

separate  nettting  shall  be  identical  to the bar  length  of  the  exit  window  netting  times  the 

square root of two. 

The exit window shall be attached on both sides of the codend, and the distance between the 

rear end of the codend and the window shall be 40-50 cm.  The length of the window shall 

be 80% of the total length of the codend and the height of the window shall be 50 cm. The 

window shall be mounted in a way that gives an opening between the upper and lower seams 

of the window of  15-20 cm.

EXIT  WINDOW  (model  2) 

Identification: 

The  windows  shall  be  rectangular  sections  of  netting  in  the  codend.  There  shall  be  two 

windows  in  the  codend. 

Size: 

Each  window  shall  have  a  minimum  width  of 45  cm  along  its  entire  length.  Each  window 

shall  have  a minimum  length  of  3.5  m measured  along  its  sides  (Figure  1) 

Netting  (Fig.  2): 

The  meshes  in  the  windows  shall  have  a  minimum  size  of  105  mm.  They  shall  be  square 

meshes,  i.e.  all  four  sides  of  the  window  netting  will  be  cut  all  bars.  The  netting  shall  be 

mounted  such that  the  bars  run  parallel  and  perpendicular  to  the  length  of  the codend.  The 

window  width  shall be 8 open square meshes. The length shall be between 57 and 62 square 

meshes. 

Location: 

The  codend  shall  be  divided  into  upper  and  lower  pannels  by  selvedges  running  down  the 

port and starboard  sides. The two windows shall be located  in the lower pannel,  immediately 

adjacent  to and below  the  selvedges.  The  windows  shall terminate  a minimum  of 2 m  and a 

maximum  of  2.5  m  from  the  codline  (Figure  1). 

The  forward  end  of  the  window  shall  be joined  to  8  meshes  width  of  the  normal  codend 

netting.  One side shall join to the selvedge or be joined  immediately  adjacent  to the  selvedge 

and  the  other  side  shall  be joined  to  the  normal  codend  lower  pannel  netting  following  a 

straight  all  knots  cut  (Figure  3). 

Mesh  size  in  the  whole  codend: 

All  parts  of  the  codend  shall  conform  to  a minimum  mesh  size  of  105  mm.
