PROPOSED ACT : Council Regulation.

CONTENT : the Protocol to the Fisheries Agreement between the European Community and the Government of the Republic of Guinea-Bissau expired on 15 June 2006. This proposal concerns the provisional application of the extension of the Protocol for one more year, until 15 June 2007.

The two parties agreed in December 2005 to extend this Agreement and to implement the action programme to support the control and inspection required for the sustainable development of the fisheries sector.
