THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3094/86 of 7 October 1986 laying down certain technical measures for the conservation of fishery resources (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3919/92 (2), and in particular Article 15 thereof,
Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3554/90 (3) adopts provisions for the establishment of the list of vessels exceeding eight metres length overall which, pursuant to Article 9 (3) (c) of Regulation (EEC) No 3094/86, are permitted to fish for sole  within certain areas of the Community using beam trawls of an aggregate length exceeding nine metres;
Whereas the authorities of certain Member States have requested amendments to the annual list of vessels meeting the conditions laid down in Article 1 of that Regulation; whereas those amendments relate to the replacement, addition and/or withdrawal of  vessels and to the technical characteristics of certain vessels on that list; whereas the requests from the national authorities contain all the information necessary pursuant to Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 3554/90;
Whereas updating the list by means of Commission regulations is not conducive to the effective management of fishing opportunities on account of the delays imposed by the legislative process;
Whereas those delays would be eliminated by simplifying the procedure for amending this list, whereby the Commission would directly notify the Member States of the decisions taken in that regard;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Fisheries and Aquaculture,
