Abstract

Vessels flying the flag of Norway are hereby authorized until 31 December 1999 to fish for the species listed in Annexes I and IA, within the geographical and quantitative limits laid down therein and in accordance with this Regulation, in the 200-nautical-mile fishing zone of the Member States in the North Sea, Skagerrak, Kattegat, Baltic Sea and Atlantic Ocean north of 43° 00' N. Fishing authorized pursuant to paragraph 1 shall be limited to those parts of the 200-nautical-mile fishing zone lying seawards of 12 nautical miles from the baselines from which the fishing zones of Member States are measured; however, fishing in the Skagerrak will be allowed seawards of four nautical miles from the Danish baselines. Vessels fishing within the quotas fixed in Article 1 shall comply with the conservation and control measures and all other provisions governing fishing in the zones referred to in that Article. When fishing in any ICES division under the quotas fixed in article 1, vessels exceeding 200 GRT must hold a licence and special fishing permit issued by the Commission on behalf of the Community and must observe the conditions as established by that licence and special fishing permit.
