COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 1629/87

of 10 June 1987

concerning the stopping of fishing for cod by vessels flying the flag of Germany

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2057/82 of 29 June 1982 establishing certain control measures for fishing activities by vessels of the Member States (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 4027/86 (2), and in particular Article 10 (3) thereof,

Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 4035/86 of 22 December 1986 allocating certain catch quotas between Member States for vessels fishing in the Norwegian economic zone and the fishery zone around Jan Mayen (3) provides for cod quotas for 1987;

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 cod in the waters of ICES divisions I and II (Norwegian waters north of 62° N) by vessels flying the flag of Germany or registered in Germany have reached the quotas allocated for 1987; whereas Germany has prohibited fishing for this stock as from 29 May 1987; whereas it is therefore necessary to abide by that date,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

It shall apply with effect from 29 May 1987.
