(86/471/EEC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2908/83 of 4 October 1983 on a common measure for restructuring, modernizing and developing the fishing industry and for developing aquaculture (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3733/85 (2), and in particular Article 5 thereof,
Whereas on 12 April 1986 the Spanish Government forwarded a programme within the meaning of Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 2908/83, hereinafter referred to as 'the programme'; whereas on 30 April and 5 May 1986 it forwarded the latest additional information concerning the programme;
Whereas the programme contains the information referred to in Article 4 of Regulation (EEC) No 2908/83; whereas the time required for its execution is in accordance with the first paragraph of Article 3;
Whereas the vessels in the Spanish fishing fleet are quite old and the fleet should be partially renewed; whereas, because of uncertainty as to the availability of fish stocks in Community waters and elsewhere, such renewal must involve an overall reduction in fishing capacity and permanent monitoring thereof on the basis of the rate of direct and indirect withdrawal of obsolete vessels still in service;
Whereas, having regard to production potential, measures for the conservation and management of fish stocks, demand for the products concerned and the guidelines of the common fisheries policy, the programme may constitute a suitable framework for projects which may qualify for financial support from the Community in 1986;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee for the Fishing Industry,
