If a condition set out in Article 33 is no longer met, the Commission shall take the appropriate action, including amending or withdrawing the authorisation, and inform the third country and the Member States concerned of this.

The Commission may refuse, suspend or withdraw the authorisation issued to the third-country fishing vessel in cases where a fundamental change of circumstances has occurred or in cases of a serious threat to the sustainable exploitation, management and conservation of marine biological resources, or where it is essential in order to prevent or suppress IUU fishing, or in cases where the Union has decided to suspend or sever relations with the third country concerned.

The Commission shall immediately inform the third country concerned in the event that it refuses, suspends or withdraws the authorisation in accordance with the first subparagraph.
