amending Council Regulation (EEC) No 3880/91 on the submission of nominal catch statistics by
Member States fishing in the north-east Atlantic

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty

establishing the European

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3880/91 of 17
December 1991 on the submission of nominal catch statistics
by Member States fishing in the north-east Atlantic (1), and in
particular Article 2(3) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

(2)

At its annual meeting in November 2002, the North East
Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC) recommended
that, with a view to improving the management of fish
stocks in the international waters under its jurisdiction,
the international agencies responsible for the collection
and compilation of catch statistics should be requested to
implement an appropriate subdivision of the statistical
areas.

The Deepwater Fisheries Working Group of the Interna-
tional Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) has
recommended the subdivision of the statistical divisions
of the north-east Atlantic so as to better identify deep-
water fisheries.

(3)

(4)

(5)

the International Baltic Sea Fisheries
The decision of
the Baltic Sea
Commission to manage the stocks of
division 28 as two separate units demands the availability
of statistics for these units.

The ICES, acting on the advice of its Advisory Committee
for Fisheries Management, has accordingly requested the
UN Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) to modify
its Statlant 27A questionnaire by asking national autho-
rities to submit statistics for catches in certain waters of
the north-east Atlantic with an increased level of detail.

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in
accordance with
