THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2241/87 of 23 July 1987 establishing certain control measures for fishing activities (1), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3483/88 (2), and in particular Article 11 (3) thereof,

Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 4194/88 of 21 December 1988 fixing, for certain fish stocks and groups of fish stocks, the total allowable catches for 1989 and certain conditions under which they may be fished (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2278/89 (4), provides for mackerel shares of total allowable catches available to the Community for 1989;

Whereas, in order to ensure compliance with the provisions relating to the quantitative limitations on catches of stocks subject to total allowable catches, it is necessary for the Commission to fix the date by which catches made by vessels flying the flag of a Member State are deemed to have exhausted the share of the total allowable catches available to the Community;

Whereas, according to the information communicated to the Commission, catches of mackerel in the waters of ICES divisions II a (EC zone), III a; III b, c and d (EC zone) and IV by vessels flying the flag of a Member State or registered in a Member State have reached the share of the total allowable catches available to the Community for 1989,
