Commission Regulation (EC) No 1965/2001

of 8 October 2001

amending Regulation (EEC) No 2807/83 laying down detailed rules for recording Member States' catches of fish

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), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2846/98(2), and in particular Article 6(8) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Article 6 of Regulation (EEC) No 2847/93 requires masters of Community fishing vessels whose overall length is equal to or more than 10 metres to keep a logbook. The fishing vessels to which this requirement applies should therefore be clearly specified in Annexes IV and V to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2807/83 of 22 September 1983 laying down detailed rules for recording Member States' catches of fish(3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2737/1999(4).

(2) Annex VIIIa to Regulation (EEC) No 2807/83 lists the radio stations through which Community fishing vessels transmit certain messages. The French and German radio stations listed in this Annex have definitively ceased operating. The references to them should therefore be removed from the Annex in question.

(3) It is therefore necessary to amend Regulation (EEC) No 2807/83 to reflect this.

(4) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Fisheries and Aquaculture,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
