		Because of the economic and social impact of such a measure on the fleets concerned and after consultation with scientists, the Commission proposed, as an alternative to a moratorium, substantially reduced fishing possibilities for cod and cod-related fisheries, fishing effort limitations and control measures to ensure their proper implementation.
		Thus, for cod in the North Sea, the Commission had proposed to reduce fishing mortality by 80% which would have resulted in a reduction in TAC of 66%.
		Under the new system, all Member States' vessels (including Spanish vessels) operating in the waters concerned will be submitted to the same regime of effort limitation, to be determined on the basis of their recent levels of activity over the period 1998-2002 and the fishing opportunities of the Member States.
