"The report is one of the cornerstones of the reform of the common fisheries policy in that it increases the sector’s competitiveness, particularly for producers. It also includes aspects of prime importance for the health and confidence of consumers in the sector. In this respect, safeguarding the interests of consumers and satisfying their demands for clarity and transparency should be the goal of our common policies, because they can become a way of encouraging people to spend. This is all the more important during a slump in sales, when all the indicators show that people tend to purchase goods in a more conscious and informed way, which means they look for quality. That is why we are firmly convinced that the product packaging should show not the date when the fish were landed but the date on which they were actually caught. The landing date, however, which is supported by the moderates and conservatives, is not only misleading for the consumer but also unduly favours large fleets that are able to stay at sea for several days over smaller vessels that can only stay at sea for a few hours. Once again, we would have expected a more rational attitude from the moderates, who seem to have given in to the interests of the larger groups."@en1
