Does that include fisheries? I am thinking of a chain down in Dunmore East.
I have not seen that chain. We must also scrutinise Com (2003) 234, a Council proposal amending directive 77/388/EEC, the sixth VAT directive regarding value-added tax for services provided in the postal sector. Is that agreed? Agreed.
We must scrutinise Com 2003 (237), a proposal for a Council regulation establishing measures for the recovery of cod stocks. Is that agreed? Agreed. Furthermore, is it agreed not to scrutinise the following: Com (2003) 220, Com (2003) 217 and Com (2003) 202? Agreed.
