Having regard to the Council Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 of 20 December 2002 on the conservation and sustainable exploitation of fisheries resources under the Common Fisheries Policy, and in particular Article 33(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Decision 2005/629/EC establishes a Scientific, Technical and Economic Committee for Fisheries (STECF) which provides to the Commission highly qualified scientific advice.
(2) Decision 2005/629/EC sets up procedures for the appointment of the STECF members, terms of office of its members, invitations of external experts, creation of Working Groups and procedures for the adoption of the rules of procedure of STECF. Those procedures should be simplified allowing administrative decisions to be taken at the appropriate level.
(3) To avoid confusion with daily allowances paid to private experts invited by the Commission, the additional allowances to be allocated in accordance with Decision 2005/629/EC to STECF members and external experts participating in meetings of the STECF, should be named compensation.
(4) Decision 2005/629/EC should therefore be amended accordingly,
