Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2241/87 of 23 July 1987 establishing certain control  measures for fishing activities  (1), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3483/88  (2), and in  particular Article 11 (3) thereof,
Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 3921/92 of 20 December 1992 allocating, for 1993, certain catch  quotas between Member States for vessels fishing in the Norwegian exclusive economic zone and the  fishing zone around Jan Mayen  (3), provides for saithe quotas for 1993;
Whereas, in order to ensure compliance with the provisions relating to the quantitative limitations  on catches of stocks subject to quotas, it is necessary for the Commission to fix the date by which  catches made by vessels flying the flag of a Member State are deemed to have exhausted the quota  allocated;
Whereas, according to the information communicated to the Commission, catches of saithe in the  waters of ICES divisions I, II  a and b (Norwegian waters north of 62°  N) by vessels flying the  flag of the United Kingdom or registered in the United Kingdom have reached the quota allocated for  1993; whereas the United Kingdom has prohibited fishing for this stock as from 12 March 1993;  whereas it is therefore necessary to abide by that date,
