Commission Regulation (EC) No 1812/2001
of 14 September 2001
amending Regulation (EC) No 1886/2000 as regards the extension to non-members of certain rules adopted by producers' organisations in the fisheries sector
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 104/2000 of 17 December 1999 on the common organisation of the markets in fishery and aquaculture products(1), as amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 939/2001(2), and in particular Article 7(10) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EC) No 1886/2000 of 6 September 2000 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 104/2000 as regards the extension to non-members of certain rules adopted by producers' organisations in the fisheries sector(3) contains in particular criteria for assessing the degree of representativeness of producers' organisations in the catch sector that are not suitable for the aquaculture sector. It is therefore necessary to define specific criteria in that sector as regards representativeness.
(2) Taking into account the features of the aquaculture sector, it also seems appropriate that the production and marketing rules in that sector be clearly defined in that Regulation.
(3) Regulation (EC) No 1886/2000 should therefore be amended.
(4) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Fishery Products,
