<s>[INST] The next text is a question of a member of the European parliament:"Following the Prestige accident, the Governments of Spain and France agreed to expel single-hull oil tankers more than 15 years old from the zone between 12 and 200 miles, i.e. to keep them out of their territorial waters, even if they complied with International Maritime Organisation standards.  Even though this is a praiseworthy decision, it has been criticised because it is not in keeping with the International Convention on the Law of the Sea. Article 58 of that Convention establishes the freedom of navigation and overflight in this area of the exclusive economic zone, in which any restriction on freedom of movement must be imposed by the IMO and not by one or various States acting unilaterally.  What is the Commission's view of this statement by the Governments of Spain and France?  Agreeing on the need to reduce the risk of fresh disasters, will the Commission urge the Member States to submit a reasoned communication to the International Maritime Organisation, pursuant to Article 211(6) of the Convention on the Law of the Sea, requesting authorisation to restrict the free transit of such vessels in this defined zone?"
