Pending the adoption of recovery plans and the implementation of the effort management schemes included therein, it is necessary to apply provisional effort management schemes at least for the most endangered stocks, those for which the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) recommends a zero TAC in 2004.

All vessels authorized to fish shall communicate on entry into and on departure from the ICES area in which they are authorized to fish and weekly beginning from the date of the commencement of fishing operations, the following information in the order shown below, to the Commission of the European Communities at Brussels (telex 24189 FISEU-B):

Catches of Greenland halibut in the waters of ICES divisions I and II a and b (Norwegian waters north of 62 °N) by vessels flying the flag of a Member State or registered in a Member State are deemed to have exhausted the quota allocated to the Community for 1995.

"Kattegat" means that part of division III a, as delineated by ICES, that is bounded on the north by a line drawn from the Skagen lighthouse to the Tistlarna lighthouse, and from this point to the nearest point on the Swedish coast, and on the south by a line drawn from Hasenore to Gnibens Spids, from Korshage to Spodsbjerg and from Gilbjerg Hoved to Kullen;

This area also represents statistical area 27 (North-east Atlantic statistical area) in the FAO International Standard Statistical Classification of Fishing Areas.

It shall be prohibited to retain on board tuna caught using drift-nets in waters under the sovereignty or jurisdiction of Spain or Portugal in ICES subareas VIII, IX and X, or in CECAF areas around the Canary Islands and Madeira, or to fish for the said species in the said areas with the said gears.

GISP (Greenland Ice Sheet Precipitation)

Whereas, according to the information communicated to the Commission, catches of Greenland halibut in the waters of ICES divisions I and II a and b (Norwegian waters north of 62 °N) by vessels flying the flag of a Member State or registered in a Member State have reached the quota allocated for 1995,

The retention on board of tuna which are caught using drift-nets in waters under the sovereignty or jurisdiction of Spain or Portugal in ICES sub-areas VIII, IX and X, or in CECAF areas around the Canary Islands and Madeira, or the fishing for the said species in the said areas with the said gears shall be prohibited.

throughout the year within ICES Division VIIa, in the geographical area between the west coasts of Scotland, England and Wales, and a line drawn 12 miles from the baselines of the coasts bounded to the south by latitude 53° 20' N and to the north-west by a line drawn between the Mull of Galloway (Scotland) and the Point of Ayre (Isle of Man);

Whereas Council Regulation (EC) No 685/95 of 27 March 1995 on the management of fishing effort relating to certain Community fishing areas and resources (2) establishes the criteria and procedures for the introduction of a system for the management of fishing effort in ICES divisions Vb, VI, VII, VIII, IX, X and CECAF areas 34.1.1, 34.1.2 and 34.2.0;

For the purpose of this Regulation, this ICES area shall be that bounded by a line due east from the United Kingdom east coast along latitude 55° 00' N to a point at longitude 1° 00' W, from there due north to a point at latitude 55° 30' N and from there due west to the United Kingdom coast,

In recognition of the area closure in the Irish Sea for the protection of spawning fish and the assumed reduction in fishing mortality on cod, an additional two days will be available for vessels in groupings of fishing gears 4a and 4b which spend more than half of their allocated days in a given management period fishing in the Irish Sea (ICES Division VIIa).

Whereas Council Regulation (EC) No 685/95 of 27 March 1995 on the management of fishing effort relating to certain Community fishing areas and resources (2) establishes the criteria and procedures for the introduction of a system for the management of fishing effort in ICES divisions Vb, VI, VII, VIII, IX and X and CECAF areas 34.1.1, 34.1.2 and 34.2.0;

At its 87th Statutory Meeting in 1999 the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) resolved to adopt the species groupings for elasmobranch fishes as described in the report of the Study Group on Elasmobranch Species and to request FAO to include these species on its Statlant 27A questionnaire on catch statistics for the North-East Atlantic.

The technical and control measures hereinafter laid down shall apply in the waters falling under the sovereignty or jurisdiction of the Member States except Spain and Portugal and covered by the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) to vessels flying the flag of Portugal and registered and/or recorded in Portugal.

Fishing for herring shall be prohibited throughout the year in the Irish Sea (ICES division VII a) in the maritime area between the west coasts of Scotland, England and Wales and a line drawn 12 miles from the baselines of these coasts bounded to the south by latitude 53° 20' N and to the north-west by a line drawn between the Mull of Galloway (Scotland) and the Point of Ayre (Isle of Man).

Also, conditions defined in footnote 6 of Annex I of Council Regulation (EC) No 850/98 of 30 March 1998 for the conservation of fishery resources through technical measures for the protection of juveniles of marine organisms(4) currently allow, during 2000, relaxed percentage by-catch conditions to prevail for various fishing gears both within and in waters adjacent to the Irish Sea (ICES Division VIIa).

For the purpose of this Regulation, this ICES area shall be the area bounded by a line due east from the United Kingdom east coast along latitude 55° 00' N to a point at longitude 1° 00' W, from there due north to a point at latitude 55° 30' N and from there due west to the United Kingdom coast;

The TACs shall not exceed a level of catches which a scientific evaluation, carried out by the STECF in the light of the most recent report of the ICES, has indicated will result in an increase of 30 % in the quantities of mature fish in the sea at the end of the year of their application, compared to the quantities estimated to have been in the sea at the start of that year.

This Regulation lays down technical measures additional to those defined in Regulation (EC) No 850/98 which shall apply exclusively to the Irish Sea (ICES Division VIIa as defined in Council Regulation (EEC) No 3880/91 of 17 December 1991 on the submission of nominal catch statistics by Member States fishing in the north-east Atlantic)(5).

Purse seines shall not be used for catching tropical tuna (skipjack, bigeye and longfinned tuna) in waters under the sovereignty or jurisdiction of Portugal in ICES division X north of 36° 30' N or in Cecaf areas north of 31° N and east of 17° 30' W.

Recent scientific advice from the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) has indicated that a number of cod stocks in Community waters have been subjected to levels of mortality by fishing which have eroded the quantities of mature fish in the sea to the point at which the stocks may not be able to replenish themselves by reproduction and that these stocks are therefore threatened with collapse.

except in ICES sub-areas V and VI, any cod-end and/or extension piece of any towed net except beam trawls of mesh size greater than 55 mm which is not constructed of single-twine netting material of which no twine is of thickness greater than 6 mm or of double-twine netting material of which no twine is of thickness greater than 4 mm;

The technical and control measures hereinafter laid down shall apply to vessels flying the flag of Portugal in the waters falling under the sovereignty or jurisdiction of Spain which are covered by the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) and that part covered by the Fishery Committee for the Eastern Central Atlantic (CECAF) which is subject to the Common Fisheries Policy.

It shall be prohibited to retain on board any quantity of skipjack, bigeye or yellowfin tuna which are caught using purse seines in waters under the sovereignty or jurisdiction of Portugal in ICES subarea X north of 36°30' N or in CECAF areas north of 31° N and east of 17°30' W, or to fish for the said species in the said areas with the said gears.

Tuna fishing The access of Spanish vessels to island waters under the sovereignty or jurisdiction of Portugal in ICES area X and Cecaf and that of Portuguese vessels to island waters under the sovereignty or jurisdiction of Spain in Cecaf is excluded, except, where appropriate, in the case of vessels engaging in fishing activities which involve the use of traditional gear under a joint agreement between these two Member States.

Fishing for Greenland halibut in the waters of ICES divisions I and II a and b (Norwegian waters north of 62 °N) by vessels flying the flag of a Member State or registered in a Member State is prohibited, as well as the retention on board, the transhipment and the landing of such stock captured by the abovementioned vessels after the date of entry into force of this Regulation.

2,1 g/l (35 meq/l) for wines entitled to the descriptions "Icewine", "Winter harvest wine" and "Vin du curé".

The retention on board of any quantity of skipjack, bigeye or yellowfin tuna which are caught using purse seines in waters under the sovereignty or jurisdiction of Portugal in ICES sub-area X north of 36° 30' N or in CECAF areas north of 31° N and east of 17° 30' W, or the fishing for the said species in the said areas with the said gears shall be prohibited.

The technical and control measures hereinafter laid down shall apply in the waters falling under the sovereignty or jurisdiction of the Member States except Spain and Portugal and covered by the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) to vessels flying the flag of Spain and registered and/or recorded at a port located on territory covered by the common fisheries policy.

Where the Commission finds, on the basis of advice from ICES and following agreement on that advice by the Scientific Technical and Economic Committee for Fisheries (STECF), that for two consecutive years the target level for any cod stock concerned has been reached, the Council shall decide by qualified majority on a proposal from the Commission to remove that stock from the scope of this Regulation and to establish a management plan for that stock in accordance with Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002.

Each year, the Council shall decide by a qualified majority, on the basis of a proposal from the Commission, on adjustments to the number of fishing days for vessels deploying gear of mesh size equal to or greater than 100 mm in direct proportion to the annual adjustments in fishing mortality that are estimated by ICES and STECF as being consistent with the application of the TACs established according to the method described in Article 6.

The definitions of ICES (International Council for the Exploration of the Sea) zones are those given, respectively, in Council Regulation (EEC) No 3880/91 of 17 December 1991 on the submission of nominal catch statistics by Member States fishing in the north-east Atlantic(7), and Council Regulation (EC) No 2597/95 of 23 October 1995 on the submission of nominal catch statistics by Member States fishing in certain areas other than those of the North Atlantic(8).

Whereas it is imperative to preserve the balance of resources in highly sensitive zones such as that situated to the south of latitude north 56°30& prime; N, east of longitude 12° W and north of latitude 50°30& prime; N, ICES division X to the north of 36°30& prime; N and the CECAF zone to the north of 31° N and north of that parallel to the east of 17°30& prime; W;

In the event of a technical failure of non-functioning of the satellite-tracking device fitted on board a third-country fishing vessel during the time it is in Community waters, the master or the owner of the vessel or their representative shall communicate every two hours, and each time the vessel moves from one ICES division to another, the up-to-date current geographical position of the vessel by e-mail, by telex, by fax, by telephone messages or by radio.

assess the levels of fishing effort exerted by vessels equal to or more than 15 metres in length overall, as an annual average of the period 1998 to 2002, in each of the ICES areas and CECAF divisions referred to in Article 1 for demersal fisheries, excluding demersal fisheries, those covered by Council Regulation (EC) No 2347/2002 of 16 December 2002 establishing specific access requirements and associated conditions applicable to fishing for deep-sea stocks(9) and fisheries for scallops, edible crab and spider crab, as laid down in the Annex to this Regulation.

In addition to the obligations laid down in Articles 15 and 19i of Regulation (EEC) No 2847/93, Member States, on the basis of the information recorded in logbooks including full records of fishing days out of port and reports presented by the scientific observers, shall communicate, for each half calendar year within three months of the expiry of that half calendar year, to the Commission the information about catches of deep-sea species and fishing effort deployed, expressed as kilowatt-fishing days, broken down by quarter of the year, by type of gear, by species, as well as information concerning those in Annex II and by ICES statistical rectangle or CECAF subdivision.
