COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 2780/95 of 30 November 1995 amending, for the third time, Regulation (EC) No 3362/94 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

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3760/92 of 20 December 1992 establishing a Community system for fisheries and aquaculture (1), and in particular Article 8 (4) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas, under the terms of Article 8 (4) of Regulation (EEC) No 3760/92, it is incumbent upon the Council to establish the total allowable catches (TACs) by fishery or group of fisheries;

Whereas, Regulation (EC) No 3362/94 (2) fixes, for certain fish stocks and groups of fish stocks, the TACs for 1995 and certain conditions under which they may be fished;

Whereas the state of the stocks of whiting in areas VII (except VII a) and VIII, Norway lobster in areas VII and VIII, sprat in the North Sea and cod in the Kattegat allow increase of TACs without endangering the future management of these resources;

Whereas, by virtue of the application of the recommendations agreed during the 20th session of the International Baltic Sea Fisheries Commission, the Community has obtained an additional quota of sprat in the Baltic Sea for 1995;

Whereas Regulation (EC) No 3362/94 should therefore be amended accordingly,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The text of the Annex to this Regulation shall replace the corresponding text of the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 3362/94.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the 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.

Done at Brussels, 30 November 1995.

For the Council The President M. A. AMADOR MILLÁN
