According to Commission Communication No 2012/C 72/07OJ C 72, 10.3.2012, p. 27. such deductions should be preferably operated from quotas allocated for stocks fished by the same fleet as the fleet that overfished the quota, taking into account the need to avoid discards in mixed fisheries.(7)The Member States concerned have been consulted with regard to the proposed deductions from quotas allocated for stocks other than those which have been overfished.(8)Moreover, certain deductions provided for by Implementing Regulation (EU) No 871/2014 appear to be larger than the adapted quota available in the year 2014 and, as a consequence, cannot be entirely operated on that quota. According to Commission Communication No 2012/C 72/07, the remaining amounts should be deducted from the adapted quotas available in subsequent years.(9)Implementing Regulation (EU) No 871/2014 should therefore be amended accordingly.HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1The fishing quotas for the year 2014 referred to in the Annex I to this Regulation shall be reduced by applying the deductions on the alternative stocks set out in that Annex.
Article 2The Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 871/2014 is replaced by the text in Annex II to this Regulation.
Article 3This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.Done at Brussels, 18 December 2014.For the CommissionThe PresidentJean-Claude JunckerANNEX IDEDUCTIONS FROM QUOTAS FOR STOCKS OTHER THAN THOSE WHICH HAVE BEEN OVERFISHED
Quotas available to a Member State pursuant to the relevant fishing opportunities Regulations after taking into account exchanges of fishing opportunities in accordance with Article 20(5) of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 (OJ L 358, 31.12.2002, p. 59) and Article 16(8) of Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013, quota transfers in accordance with Article 4(2) of Council Regulation (EC) No 847/96 (OJ L 115, 9.5.1996, p. 3) and/or reallocation and deduction of fishing opportunities in accordance with Articles 37 and 105 of Council Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009.As set out in Article 105(2) of Council Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009. Deductions equal to the overfishing * 1,00 shall apply in all cases of overfishing equal to, or less than, 100 tonnes.As set out in Article 105(3) of Council Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009. Letter "A" indicates that an additional multiplying factor of 1.5 has been applied due to consecutive overfishing in the years 2011, 2012 and 2013. Letter "C" indicates that an additional multiplying factor of 1.5 has been applied as the stock is subject to a multiannual plan.Regulation (EU) No 770/2013 and Regulation (EU) No 1204/2013 have operated deductions from fishing quotas for certain countries and species for 2013. However, for certain Member States the deductions to be applied were higher than their respective 2013 quota and could therefore not be operated entirely in that year. To ensure that also in such cases the full amount be deducted, the remaining quantities have been taken into account when establishing deductions from 2014.Remaining quantities related to overfishing in years preceding the entry into force of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 and that cannot be deducted from another stock.
