COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 891/95 of 21 April 1995 concerning the stopping of fishing for salmon by vessels flying the flag of Finland
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
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 3370/94 of 20 December 1994 allocating, for 1995, catch quotas between Member States for vessels fishing in Latvian waters (2), provides for salmon 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 salmon in the waters of ICES division III d (Latvian waters) by vessels flying the flag of Finland or registered in Finland have reached the quota allocated for 1995; whereas Finland has prohibited fishing for this stock as from 11 March 1995; whereas it is therefore necessary to abide by that date,
