"Mr President, this report provides an overview of Parliament’s response to the Commission’s suggestions for reform of the Common Fisheries Policy. I support the general thrust of the measures for conservation in marine biology.
But this own-initiative report has given us just a little peek into how the arguments are going to be played out in the coming months. We have just seen a little bit of it now. There will be arguments and compromises over words. We have seen it here in the amendment attempting to change wording from levels above maximum sustainable yield (MSY) to close to MSY.
There will be the liberal use of euphemisms, such as ‘renewal’, when what we are really talking about is giving public money to replace boats, making them bigger with higher capacity and not necessarily doing anything for the conservation of fish stocks.
I am committed to working on common fisheries policy reform towards sustainability, but unfortunately, due to the amendments, I was not able to support this report."@en1
