THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 43(3) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1) On 5 October 2006, the Council approved the conclusion of the Partnership Agreement in the fisheries sector between the European Community and the Union of the Comoros (the ‘Partnership Agreement’) by adopting Regulation (EC) No 1563/2006(1).
(2) The European Union negotiated with the Union of the Comoros a new Protocol to the Partnership Agreement granting vessels of the European Union fishing opportunities in Comoros waters.
(3) On 16 December 2013, the Council adopted Decision 2013/786/EU(2) on the signing and provisional application of the new Protocol.
(4) The fishing opportunities among the Member States should be allocated for the period of application of the new Protocol.
(5) Council Regulation (EC) No 1006/2008(3) provides that the Commission is to inform the Member States concerned if it appears that the fishing opportunities allocated to the European Union under the new Protocol are not fully exhausted. If no reply is received within a time limit to be set by the Council, this will be considered as confirmation that the vessels of the Member State concerned are not making full use of their fishing opportunities during the period in question. That time limit should be set.
(6) To ensure that vessels of the European Union can continue their fishing activities, the new Protocol provides for its application by the Parties on a provisional basis as from 1 January 2014. This Regulation should therefore apply from the provisional application of the new Protocol,

This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
