EC/Mauritania fisheries agreement: cooperation agreement on the sea fisheries

In adopting the report by Mr Girao PEREIRA, (UPE, P), Parliament approved the proposal for a Council Regulation on the sea fisheries cooperation agreement between the European Community and Mauritania. It considered, however, that the legal basis proposed by the Council is not appropriate and that reference should be made, as it is in the Commission proposal, to the second subparagraph of Article 228(3) of the EC Treaty. �
