                                 Council Regulation (EU) 2021/92 (9).
                              
                           
               
                     (3)
                  
                  
                     Pursuant to Article 105(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009, when the Commission has established that a Member State has exceeded the fishing quotas which have been allocated to it, the Commission is to operate deductions from future fishing quotas of that Member State.
                  
               
                     (4)
                  
                  
                     Article 105(2) and (3) of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 provides that such deductions have to be operated in the following year or years by applying the respective multiplying factors as set out therein.
                  
               
                     (5)
                  
                  
                     Certain Member States have exceeded their fishing quotas for the year 2020. It is therefore appropriate to operate deductions on the fishing quotas allocated to them in 2021 and, where relevant, in subsequent years, for the overfished stocks.
                  
               
                     (6)
                  
                  
                     Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/1247 (10) and Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/2006 (11) have set out deductions from fishing quotas for certain Member States and species for 2020. However, for certain Member States, the deductions to be applied for some species were higher than the respective quotas available in 2020 and could therefore not be operated entirely in that year. To ensure that in such cases the full amount for the respective stocks is deducted, the remaining quantities should be taken into account when establishing deductions for 2021 and, where appropriate, from subsequent quotas.
                  
               
                     (7)
                  
                  
                     In 2019, Portugal overfished its quota for albacore in the Atlantic Ocean, North of 5° N (ALB/AN05N). The deduction of 1 271,026 tonnes that resulted from this overfishing was applicable in 2020. At the request of Portugal, the corresponding deduction was equally spread over two years (2020 and 2021). By Regulation (EU) 2020/1247, the first half of the deduction, namely 635,513 tonnes, was operated on the 2020 Portuguese quota. Therefore, a remaining quantity of 635,513 tonnes should be deducted from the Portuguese quota for 2021.
                  
               
                     (8)
                  
                  
                     As regards sandeel in ICES divisions 2a, 3a and ICES subarea 4, given Denmark has overfished its total allowable catches in Union waters of management area 2r as defined in Annex III of Regulation (EU) 2020/123 in 2020, it is required to operate deductions. In 2021, minimal catches have been allowed for sandeel in these waters in order to monitor the abundance of sandeel. However, with the said deductions it is impossible to maintain the monitoring system (12) advised by the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) to manage sandeel. Therefore, deductions for the quotas overfished by Denmark in 2020 in management area 2r should be operated from sandeel management area 3r in 2021.
                  
               
                     (9)
                  
                  
                     Deductions from fishing quotas, as provided for by this Regulation, should apply without prejudice to deductions applicable to 2021 Spanish quotas pursuant to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 185/2013 (13).
                  
               
                     (10)
                  
                  
                     Since quotas are expressed in tonnes, overfishing involving quantities of less than 1 tonne should not be considered,
                  
               HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
         
            Article 1
            
               1.   The fishing quotas fixed in Regulations (EU) 2020/1579, (EU) 2021/90, (EU) 2021/91 and (EU) 2021/92 for the year 2021 shall be reduced as set out in the Annex to this Regulation.
            
            
               2.   Paragraph 1 shall apply without prejudice to deductions provided for in Implementing Regulation (EU) No 185/2013.
            
         
         
            Article 2
            This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
