For the purposes of this Regulation, the following zone definitions shall apply:

1. The catch limits for EU vessels in EU waters or in certain non-EU waters and the allocation of such catch limits among Member States and additional conditions in accordance with Article 2 of Regulation (EC) No 847/96 are set out in Annex I.

2. EU vessels are hereby authorised to make catches, within the quota limits set out in Annex I, in waters falling within the fisheries jurisdiction of the Faroe Islands, Greenland, Iceland and Norway, and the fishing zone around Jan Mayen, subject to the conditions set out in Article 12 of and Annex III to this Regulation and in Regulation (EC) No 1006/2008 and its implementing provisions.

4. The Commission shall fix catch limits for capelin in Greenland waters of ICES zones V and XIV available to the Union at 7,7 % of the capelin TAC as soon as the TAC has been established.

5. Catch limits for the stock of Norway pout in EU waters of ICES zones IIa, IIIa and IV and for the stock of sprat in EU waters of ICES zones IIa and IV may be revised by the Commission in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 30(2) of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 in the light of scientific information collected during the first half of 2010.

6. As a consequence of a revision of the stock of Norway pout in accordance with paragraph 5, the catch limits for the stocks of whiting in EU waters of ICES zone IIa, IIIa and IV and for the stocks of haddock in EU waters of ICES zone IIa, III and IV may be revised by the Commission in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 30(2) of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 to take into account industrial by-catches in the Norway pout fishery.

7. The Commission may fix the catch limits for the stock of anchovy in ICES zone VIII in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 30(2) of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 in the light of scientific information collected during the first half of 2010.
