". Last week, the Commission tabled drastic quota proposals. These proposals were more inspired by practical political considerations than by justified concern for poor cod levels. Instead of a ban on cod fishing and industrial fishing, the Commission would like to restrict minimal additional cod fishing by the Dutch flatfish fleet. We would regard an approach of this kind as fighting a losing battle. Fish stock management and the corresponding quota rely on the catches being registered effectively. After a debacle in the 1980s, this registration is virtually watertight in the Netherlands. Of the fish supplied, 99% is registered and traded via fish auctions. What about the other Member States? How can one of the larger Member States export twice as many fish as supplied by the fishermen according to the registrations? The Jové Peres report is right to call for effective control and harmonised sanctions. It is high time we did something about this. Member States that fish within the quotas not only on paper but also in reality are now being hit hardest."@en1
