THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2847/93 of 12 October 1993 establishing a control system applicable to the common fisheries policy^f1, and in particular Article 21(3) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Commission Regulation (EC) No 1501/2004^f2 prohibits fishing for northern prawn in Norwegian waters south of 62° 00’ N by vessels flying the flag of Sweden or registered in Sweden.

Consequently, fishing for northern prawn in Norwegian waters south of 62° 00’ N by vessels flying the flag of Sweden or registered in Sweden should be authorised. Commission Regulation (EC) No 1501/2004 should therefore be repealed,
