Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2847/93 of 12 October 1993 establishing a control system applicable to the common fisheries policy (1), and in particular Article 21 (3) thereof,
Whereas Council Regulation (EC) No 3362/94 of 20 December 1994 fixing, for certain fish stocks and groups of fish stocks, the total allowable catches for 1995 and certain conditions under which they may be fished (2), provides for mackerel quotas for  1995;
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 mackerel in the waters of ICES divisions II a (EC zone), III a; III b, c and d (EC zone) and IV by vessels flying the flag of the United Kingdom or registered in the United  Kingdom have reached the quota allocated for 1995; whereas the United Kingdom has prohibited fishing for this stock as from 27 January 1995; whereas it is therefore necessary to abide by that date,
