From 1 July 1982 until a decision is adopted or until 23 July 1982, whichever is the earlier, the Member States shall conduct their fishing activities in accordance with the usual seasonal cycles, taking into account the TACs proposed by the Commission on 24 July 1981 and the portion of those TACs which remains available to the Community bearing in mind its commitments to third countries.

Done at Brussels, 29 June 1982.

For the Council

The President
