 ---pagebreak---                         ÈXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
      The present proposal for a modification includes in the first
instance amendments to the proposal for a Council decision approving
the fishing arrangements between the Community and Norway ( doc . COM ( 82 )
25 final dated 2 February 1982 ) and has as its objective to establish
in the form of a regulation a legal basis enabling the Commission to
prohibit by means of a regulation fishing by vessels flying the flag
of a Member State as soon as the part of a TAC or quota available to
the Community is exhausted .
      In the light of the fact that the Community did not succeed
to honour the obligations it had undertaken in its agreement on fisheries
arrangements in 1981 with Norway , it appears that such a provision is
necessary
      Furthermore the present proposal includes a modification to the
proposal for a Council Regulation establishing arrangements authorizing
Norwegian vessels to fish in the Community zone ( doc . COM ( 82 ) 25 final
dated 2 February 1982 ) and , following technical consultations between the
two parties on licensing arrangements provides for the adaptation of the
                                                              #
proposal to the results of the said consultations .
