COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 1533/2007
of 17 December 2007
amending Regulations (EC) No 2015/2006 and (EC) No 41/2007, as regards fishing opportunities and associated conditions for certain fish stocks
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 of 20 December 2002 on the conservation and sustainable exploitation of fisheries resources under the Common Fisheries Policy (1), and in particular Article 20 thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 423/2004 of 26 February 2004 establishing measures for the recovery of cod stocks (2), and in particular Article 8 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas:
(1) |
Regulation (EC) No 2015/2006 (3) fixes for 2007 and 2008 the fishing opportunities for Community fishing vessels for certain deep-sea fish stocks. |
(2) |
The North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC) at its extraordinary meeting in June 2007 decided to extend the recommendations on a prohibition to fish for orange roughy in the NEAFC Regulatory Area during the second half of 2007. These recommendations should be implemented in Community law. |
(3) |
The conditions applying to the fishery in certain zones need to be clarified to ensure the correct application of the Agreement of 19 December 1966 between Norway, Denmark and Sweden on mutual access to fishing in the Skagerrak and the Kattegat. An amendment is therefore required. |
(4) |
Regulation (EC) No 41/2007 (4) fixes for 2007 the fishing opportunities and associated conditions for certain fish stocks and groups of fish stocks, applicable in Community waters and, for Community vessels, in waters where catch limitations are required. |
(5) |
Pursuant to consultations between the Community and Iceland on 28 March 2007 an arrangement was reached on quotas for Icelandic vessels to be fished from the Community quota allocated under its Agreement with the Government of Denmark and the local Government of Greenland before 30 April 2007, and for Community vessels fishing for redfish in the Icelandic Exclusive Economic Zone to be fished between July and December. This arrangement should be implemented in Community law. |
(6) |

An amendment is therefore required. |
(7) |
In relation to the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 847/96 of 6 May 1996 introducing additional conditions for year-to-year management of TACs and quotas (5), the scientific status of certain stocks should to be clarified. |
(8) |
Pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 847/96, when more than 75 % of a precautionary TAC has been utilised before 31 October of the year of its application, a Member State with a quota for the stock for which that TAC has been fixed may request an increase in the TAC. Such a request by the Netherlands has been found to be justified in relation to the TAC for turbot and brill in EC waters of IIa and IV and should be implemented. |
(9) |
Pursuant to written consultations between the Community and the Faeroe Islands, agreement was reached on access as regards herring in EC and international waters of ICES zones I and II. This arrangement should be implemented in Community law. |
