of 1 April 2009

repealing 13 obsolete Decisions in the field of the Common Fisheries Policy

(notified under document number C(2009) 1096)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1198/2006 of 27 July 2006 on the European Fisheries Fund (1), and in particular Article 101 thereof,

Whereas:

(2)

The following Decisions relating to the common fisheries policy have become obsolete, even though formally they are still in force:

Commission Decision 86/352/EEC of 10 July 1986 concerning extensions in the implementation by Germany of certain measures to adjust capacity in the fisheries sector, pursuant to Council Directive 83/515/EEC (11),

Commission Decision 86/539/EEC of 3 November 1986 concerning the implementation by Portugal of certain measures to adjust capacity in the fisheries sector pursuant to Council Directive 83/515/EEC (12),

(4)

For reasons of legal security and clarity, those obsolete Decisions should be repealed.

(5)
