At the end of the meeting of the Council on 21 June 1978 the Commission 's
representative undertook to submit a revised proposal regarding the allocation
of catch quotas referred to in the proposal for a Council Regulation circulated
under the reference 3/767/78,
The new proposal concerns only those parts of the quotas which remain available
from the quotas fixed for the whole year 1978#    Thepe quantities have "been •
calculated on the basis of catches actually taken up to the 15 June 1978 f
and upon estimates of catches for the period 15 June to 31 July#    The Commission
reserves the right to modify the figures contained in the attached draft
Regulation in the light of definitive information upon the catches taken , which
will be available at the time of adoption by the Council .

                allocating certain catch quotas between Member States
                for vessels fishing in the Norwegian exclusive economic

THE CCU1TCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community
and in particular 43 thereof ,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission ,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament ,
Whereas the Council adopted , on 3 November 197& , a set or resolutions concerning
certain external and internal aspects of the common fisheries policy; .
Whereas the Community and the Kingdom of Norway have negotiated a framework
Agreement on fisheries ;
Whereas the Commission has submitted the Agreement to the Council for approval ;
Whereas the Community and Norway have held consultations concerning their mutual
fishing allocations for 1978 >
Whereas during the consultations the delegations agreed to recommend to their
authorities that they fix certain catch quotas for 1978 for vessels of the
other party ;
Whereas it is the responsibility of the Community to allocate the catch quotas
in the Norwegian exclusive economic zone among the Community vessels concerned ;
Whereas for this purpose it is necessary to allocate these quotas between the
Member States of the Community ;
Whereas the quotas agreed with Norway cover the whole of 1978 , but it would seem
desirable to apportion only the balance of the quotas which would remain as from
1st August 1978 ;
Whereas this allocation must take into account catches already taken by vessels
of each of the Member States ;
Whereas information about actual catches should be made available in order to
ensure that the allocations are respected ,
