According to Article 105(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009, when the Commission has established that a Member State has exceeded the fishing quotas which have been allocated to it, the Commission is to operate deductions from future fishing quotas of that Member State. Article 105(2) and (3) of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 provide that such deductions shall be operated in the following year or years by applying certain multiplying factors as set out therein. Certain Member States have exceeded their fishing quotas for the year 2011. It is therefore appropriate to operate deductions on the fishing quotas allocated to them in 2012 and, where appropriate, in subsequent years, for the overfished stocks.
