Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3863/87 of 21 December 1987 suspending the issuing of STM licences for seed potatoes (1) suspended issue of licences, up to 31 January 1988, since there was a risk that the ceiling set by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1754/87 (2) would be exceeded and that the market would be seriously disturbed;

COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 1031/2011
of 13 October 2011
establishing a prohibition of fishing for black scabbardfish in EU and international waters of VIII, IX and X by vessels flying the flag of Spain
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 of 20 November 2009 establishing a Community control system for ensuring compliance with the rules of the common fisheries policy (1), and in particular Article 36(2) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Council Regulation (EU) No 1225/2010 of 13 December 2010 fixing for 2011 and 2012 the fishing opportunities for EU vessels for fish stocks of certain deep-sea fish species (2), lays down quotas for 2011 and 2012.
(2) According to the information received by the Commission, catches of the stock referred to in the Annex to this Regulation by vessels flying the flag of or registered in the Member State referred to therein have exhausted the quota allocated for 2011.
(3) It is therefore necessary to prohibit fishing activities for that stock,
Quota exhaustion
The fishing quota allocated to the Member State referred to in the Annex to this Regulation for the stock referred to therein for 2011 shall be deemed to be exhausted from the date set out in that Annex.
Prohibitions
Fishing activities for the stock referred to in the Annex to this Regulation by vessels flying the flag of or registered in the Member State referred to therein shall be prohibited from the date set out in that Annex.

COUNCIL  REGULATION (EEC) No 1809/89
of 19 June 1989
amending Regulation (EEC) No 2997/87 laying down, in respect of hops, the amount of aid to producers for the 1986 harvest and providing for special measures for certain regions of production
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Articles 42 and 43 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (1),
Whereas, owing to the imbalance on the market for bitter varieties Regulation (EEC) No 2997/87 (2) provides for special measures for certain regions where production mainly comprises such varieties; whereas the imbalance persisting on the market for bitter varieties calls for the adoption of a measure enabling structures in regions involved in the production of bitter varieties to be modified by conversion to varieties more sought after on the market;
Whereas, in view of the market situation, the extension of the special aid provided for in Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 2997/87 for varietal conversion of any area under bitter varieties to aromatic or super-alpha varieties appears to be a suitable measure;
Whereas, in order to ensure the effectiveness of the measures contemplated, the time limit by which conversion plans may be implemented should be extended; whereas the overall trend on the market makes it possible to delete the provision limiting areas which may be cultivated by producer groups qualifying for the special aid,
Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 2997/87 is hereby amended as follows:
1. Paragraph 1 is replaced by the following:
'1. A special aid of ECU 2 500 per hectare shall be granted for areas under bitter hop varieties, on terms to be determined in accordance with the procedure referred to in paragraph 6, to producer groups recognized under Regulation (EEC) No 1696/71, the members of which undertake to implement before 31 December 1992 a plan for conversion to aromatic or super-alpha type varieties. This special aid may also be granted in respect of areas under other varieties where the latter are present on areas essentially under bitter hop varieties. This special aid shall be granted for an overall area not exceeding 800 hectares in each Member State concerned.'
2. Paragraph 4 is deleted.
3. The following subparagraph is added to paragraph 5:
'The Commission may decide to approve programmes which have been executed after their transmission to the Commission'.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organization of the market in beef and veal (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 571/89 (2), and in particular Article 15 (2) thereof,
Whereas certain special import arrangements for products in the beef and veal sector, referred to in Articles 9 to 11 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2377/80 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3182/88 (4) have not yet been established for 1990; whereas, consequently, it is necessary to derogate from Regulation (EEC) No 2377/80 with regard to the periods for lodging applications and for the granting of licences within the framework of these special systems;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Beef and Veal,
Article 15 of Regulation (EEC) No 2377/80 notwithstanding.
- no application for a licence may be lodged in respect of the arrangements referred to in Articles 9 to 11 of Regulation (EEC) No 2377/80,
- the information provided for in Article 15 (4) (a) and (b) of the said Regulation shall not be communicated,
