COUNCIL DECISION of 4 December 1990 amending Decision 87/277/EEC on the allocation of the catch possibilities for cod in the Spitzbergen and Bear Island area and in Division 3M as defined in the NAFO Convention (90/655/EEC)

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 170/83 of 25 January 1983 establishing a Community system for the conservation and management of fishery resources(1), as amended by the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal, and in particular Article 11 of that Regulation,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission(2),

Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament(3),

in order to take account of catches made by the former German Democratic Republic during the reference periods used in calculating the percentage allocations in the Annex to that decision,

HAS DECIDED AS FOLLOWS:
