"Mr President, thank you very much. It feels quite a milestone – sorry, was that millstone or milestone? – to have reached.
This report has an interesting title: ‘The conservation of fisheries resources through technical measures’. Because I really have to say, if we really want the best technical measure to conserve fishing stocks, it is not to be found in the common fisheries policy. The results are there: the common fisheries policy has been a failure when it comes to conserving fishing stocks. It is time – and long overdue – that we look at results around the world that have worked.
Let us look at the example of Iceland, where they have come up with property-based solutions and rights that can be handed down. Let us look at the example of New Zealand, where rights to fishing grounds have been handed on from generation to generation. In both cases it shows that, if you trust the market, you trust the rule of law and you trust property rights, more often than not that will find a better solution than some Soviet-style centrally planned scheme, such as the common fisheries policy, which has proved a disaster. It is time to have faith in the market."@en1
