"Mr President, although they are issues which do not only affect cod, I would like to condemn the fact that several European fisheries regulations do not take account of the discrimination that Basque fishermen and fishermen from the Spanish state have been suffering since accession to the European Community. Today it is still intended to maintain this injustice by restricting their access to the so-called Irish Box, the intention being to redefine it as a sensitive area in the Irish Sea. I agree with looking after sensitive areas, but opportunities must be equal for all. Furthermore, for the calculation of the database which will serve as a reference for the future allocation of the permitted kilowatts per day of fishing capacity, account has not been taken of the temporary halts by our vessels in years past, voluntarily, in order to allow for the self recovery of fish species. Others did not stop, they used what they fished and now they are benefiting from it, taking account of those tonnes which they caught. It is now time for the Europe of freedom and of the common market to legislate equitably and for there not to be first-class and second-class fishermen."@en1
