"We regret that, during the negotiations on drafting a joint resolution, the majority of the political groups – the Group of the European People’s Party (Christian Democrats), the Group of the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe and the Group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats in the European Parliament – decided to remove some crucial items from the resolution that we had tabled. The result was a weak resolution that did not contribute towards tackling the crisis currently being experienced in the sector and the serious threats bearing down on it; a resolution that measures up to the insipid ambitions of these groups for the fisheries sector, and for improving the situation of its professionals and the coastal communities most dependent on the sector. That is why we have retained the resolution of the Confederal Group of the European United Left – Nordic Green Left and abstained in the vote on the joint resolution. The most significant of the items that are ignored or dealt with insufficiently within that resolution are: the particular importance of small-scale coastal fishing and of traditional fishing in economic, social, environmental and cultural terms; that the future common fisheries policy (CFP) should, in isolation and in combination with other policies, contribute to maintaining and creating economic activities and jobs, both upstream and downstream from fishing; and that the multifunctionality of the fisheries sector should be fully taken into account at the level of funding the CFP, and any form of returning the costs of the CFP to the Member States should be rejected."@en1
