THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN

,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 170/83 of 25 January 1983 establishing a Community system for the conservation and management of fishery resources (1), and in particular Articles 2 and 11 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 171/83 (2), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2931/83 (3), lays down general rules for the exploitation of living resources found in Community waters;
Whereas the latest scientific opinions are not such as to enable a final decision to be taken on an increase in the minimum mesh size to be complied with when fishing in the North Sea; whereas, therefore, such decision will have to be postponed until more exhaustive scientific information is available and the deadlines previously adopted will have to be amended,
