Having regard to the Fisheries Agreement between the European Economic Community and the Government of Spain (1), and in particular Article 3 thereof,

Whereas fishing by Spanish vessels in the fishing zones of the Member States covered by Community rules on fisheries is authorized until 31 January 1983 pursuant to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3598/82 of 30 December 1982 laying down for the period 1 to 31 January 1983 certain measures for the conservation and management of fishery resources applicable to vessels flying the flag of Spain (2);

Whereas consultations are now taking place between delegations of the Community and Spain on their reciprocal fishing possibilities in 1983;

Whereas any interruption of reciprocal fishing activities should be avoided pending the outcome of those consultations;

Whereas, in order to avoid the interruption of fishing by Spanish vessels in the fishing zones of the Member States covered by Community rules on fisheries, appropriate measures must be adopted before 1 February 1983;

Whereas, consequently, this measure should be adopted on a temporary basis, subject to its later inclusion in a definitive system to be adopted under Article 43 of the Treaty;
