Opinion of the Economic and Social Committee on the 'Amended proposal for a Council Regulation (EC) laying down certain technical measures for the conservation of fishery resources` (97/C 30/22)

On 25 September 1996 the Council decided to consult the Economic and Social Committee, under Articles 43 and 198 of the Treaty establishing the European Community, on the above-mentioned proposal.

The Economic and Social Committee decided to appoint Mr Lerios as Rapporteur-General with the task of preparing the Committee's work on the subject.

At its 338th Plenary Session, held on 25 and 26 September 1996 (meeting of 25 September 1996), the Economic and Social Committee adopted the following Opinion by 80 votes to 1.

1. Main points of the Commission proposal

On 6 December 1995 the Commission presented an amended proposal for a codified version, taking account of the amendments made to Regulation (EEC) No 3094/86 since the original proposal was presented.

Since the said Regulation has been further amended in the meantime by Council Regulation (EC) No 3071/95 of 22 December 1995, the Commission has decided to table a new amended proposal to codify the Regulation under Article 189a(2) of the EC Treaty.

2. Conclusions

Given that Regulation (EEC) No 3094/86 has been once more amended to a considerable extent, the ESC takes the view that it is necessary to codify it for reasons of clarity and logical presentation; the Committee therefore endorses the Commission proposal.

Brussels, 25 September 1996.

The President of the Economic and Social Committee

Carlos FERRER
