lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the Commission has submitted a proposal on the common fisheries policy and, once again, we find ourselves using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. It is undeniable that some fishing-grounds are in a difficult situation, but it is surprising that the Commission can find no solution other than to dismantle the fisheries sector and related jobs. It is surprising that so little attention has been paid to technical measures for regenerating stocks and that industrial fishing should have been exempted from fleet reduction measures. It would seem that industrial fleets fishing indiscriminately for huge quantities of fish to feed animals have no effect on marine resources, while fishing to feed human beings, which generates employment and has greater added value, is what depletes the fishing-grounds. The Commission has tried to give this biased, partisan proposal an ecological gloss. It is surprising that greater fleet reduction is being imposed on countries which have fulfilled the obligations of the MAGPs without imposing additional obligations on those which have not fulfilled them, or have even increased their fleet capacity – and I shall not name names. Forget that structural actions are planned up until the year 2006. It is surprising that the Commission dares to withdraw the public aid granted for the modernisation of vessels agreed on at the Berlin Council. The real problem is a social one. The Commission proposal will result in the loss of a tremendous number of jobs in areas dependent on fishing, which are on the periphery of the European Union and have a high level of unemployment. The Commission must be aware that it should have made balanced proposals, that the fisheries policy is unlikely to progress under this measure, as it is unlikely to enter into force and meanwhile, Commissioner, we shall continue to waste valuable time that could be used to solve the problems of the fishing sector."@en1
