"This morning’s vote is fundamental as, without renewal, the expiry of the protocol on 28 February 2012 would otherwise risk bringing the fishing activities of the European fleet covered by the agreement to a standstill.
The difficulties in renewing the agreement are rooted in the fact that, while not ruling out the option of fishing in Western Sahara, it does not expressly involve the Sahrawi people in its benefits. Yet, in spite of this situation, on 21 February 2011, the Council approved a mandate for the European Commission to conduct negotiations for a provisional one-year extension of the agreement, in anticipation of more detailed information on the involvement of the local populations in the relative benefits.
The renewal was signed on 13 July 2011 and we have been asked to give our opinion on this agreement this morning. Personally, I expressed my support for the conclusion of the provisional protocol (for a duration of 12 months) in anticipation of clarification on apportionment of the benefits of the agreement."@en1
