The European Commission, on behalf of the European Union, and Norway on 2 December 2005 agreed on the levels of fishing possibilities for the seven joint fish stocks in the North Sea. The negotiations took place in a very positive and constructive climate. In agreeing to the fishing possibilities, the Parties took into account the latest scientific advice and the need to ensure sustainable fisheries. The two Parties agreed on the implementation of a long-term management plan for cod which was to come into effect when the stock had returned to safe biological levels. Significant progress was also made in strengthening control and enforcement so as to fight illegal fishing activities. |
